I think the biggest innovations of the twenty-first century will be the intersection of biology and technology. A new era is beginning, just like the digital one was when I was his age.
Walter Isaacson (Steve Jobs)
we have entered a third and even more momentous era, a life-science revolution. Children who study digital coding will be joined by those who study genetic code.
Walter Isaacson (The Code Breaker: Jennifer Doudna, Gene Editing, and the Future of the Human Race)
There was a romance to that analog era, an ardency, an otherness that is missing in the post-Empire digital age where everything has ultimately come to feel disposable.
Bret Easton Ellis (White)
Lo que más odio de escribir en la era digital es que todo acaba por desaparecer. Es como escribir cartas que se evaporan en el aire después de que uno las lea. Por eso hago copias. El papel dura siempre.
Patrick Carman (Skeleton Creek (Skeleton Creek, #1))
IT SEEMS DIFFICULT TO IMAGINE, but there was once a time when human beings did not feel the need to share their every waking moment with hundreds of millions, even billions, of complete and utter strangers. If one went to a shopping mall to purchase an article of clothing, one did not post minute-by-minute details on a social networking site; and if one made a fool of oneself at a party, one did not leave a photographic record of the sorry episode in a digital scrapbook that would survive for all eternity. But now, in the era of lost inhibition, it seemed no detail of life was too mundane or humiliating to share. In the online age, it was more important to live out loud than to live with dignity. Internet followers were more treasured than flesh-and-blood friends, for they held the illusive promise of celebrity, even immortality. Were Descartes alive today, he might have written: I tweet, therefore I am.
Daniel Silva (The Heist (Gabriel Alon#14))
The computer and the Internet are among the most important inventions of our era, but few people know who created them.
Walter Isaacson (The Innovators: How a Group of Hackers, Geniuses, and Geeks Created the Digital Revolution)
What is truly revolutionary about molecular biology in the post-Watson-Crick era is that it has become digital...the machine code of the genes is uncannily computer-like.' -Richard Dawkins
Matt Ridley (Genome: The Autobiography of a Species in 23 Chapters)
Our world is now so complex, our technology and science so powerful, and our problems so global and interconnected that we have come to the limits of individual human intelligence and individual expertise.
James Paul Gee (The Anti-Education Era: Creating Smarter Students through Digital Learning)
It’s clear where the world is going. We’re entering a world where every thermostat, every electrical heater, every air conditioner, every power plant, every medical device, every hospital, every traffic light, every automobile will be connected to the Internet. Think about what it will mean for the world when those devices are the subject of attack.” Then he made his pitch. “The world needs a new, digital Geneva Convention.
Andy Greenberg (Sandworm: A New Era of Cyberwar and the Hunt for the Kremlin's Most Dangerous Hackers)
This isn’t about replacing human thinking with machine thinking. Rather, in the era of cognitive systems, humans and machines will collaborate to produce better results, each bringing their own superior skills to the partnership
Walter Isaacson (The Innovators: How a Group of Hackers, Geniuses, and Geeks Created the Digital Revolution)
The second half of the twentieth century was an information-technology era, based on the idea that all information could be encoded by binary digits—known as bits—and all logical processes could be performed by circuits with on-off switches.
Walter Isaacson (The Code Breaker: Jennifer Doudna, Gene Editing, and the Future of the Human Race)
We were subject to the wonders and frustrations of unpredictability and better able to withstand them because time moved at what would only later seem a gentle flow, like a river across a prairie before the waterfall of acceleration we would all tumble over. We were prepared for encounters with strangers in ways that the digital age would buffer a lot of us from later. It was an era of both more unpredictable contact and more profound solitude.
Rebecca Solnit (Recollections of My Nonexistence)
We are moving slowly into an era where Big Data is the starting point, not the end.
Pearl Zhu (Digital Master)
​It is Obscene to keep Printing Newspapers in the Digital Era
Vineet Raj Kapoor
We still live in the era in which information is rich and insight is poor.
Pearl Zhu (Digital Gaps: Bridging Multiple Gaps to Run Cohesive Digital Business)
las redes eliminan los vacíos que hacían posible la introspección, como si nos propusiéramos suprimir el silencio llenando cada instante de ruido.
Santiago Bilinkis (Guía para sobrevivir al presente: Atrapados en la era digital)
A shift in mindset is required to thrive in the current era and this cannot be achieve at an academic level, social latitude or political sphere but at a personal level.
Nicky Verd (Disrupt Yourself Or Be Disrupted)
people like stories because they are good, not because they are true.
James Paul Gee (The Anti-Education Era: Creating Smarter Students through Digital Learning)
First and foremost is that creativity is a collaborative process. Innovation comes from teams more often than from the lightbulb moments of lone geniuses. This was true of every era of creative ferment. The Scientific Revolution, the Enlightenment, and the Industrial Revolution all had their institutions for collaborative work and their networks for sharing ideas.
Walter Isaacson (The Innovators: How a Group of Hackers, Geniuses and Geeks Created the Digital Revolution)
El mercado inunda la totalidad de nuestras vidas con una intensidad que otros proyectos expansivos y universalistas -como el catolicismo o el Imperio Romano- jamás se atrevieron a soñar.
César Rendueles (Sociofobia: El cambio político en la era de la utopía digital)
human intelligence and creativity, today more than ever, are tied to connecting—synchronizing—people, tools, texts, digital and social media, virtual spaces, and real spaces in the right ways, in ways that make us Minds and not just minds, but also better people in a better world.
James Paul Gee (The Anti-Education Era: Creating Smarter Students through Digital Learning)
así como ahora muchos trabajos se pagan con reconocimiento y visibilidad, por mucho tiempo el trabajo de las mujeres se pagó con dependencia y amor. No es inocente esta analogía que permite identificar cómo el entusiasmo es fácilmente utilizado para valerse de quienes trabajarán gratis y hasta puede que den las gracias, reforzando desigualdad.
Remedios Zafra (El entusiasmo: Precariedad y trabajo creativo en la era digital)
Embracing innovation and understanding how to navigate the digital era is the key to unlocking new opportunities and staying ahead of the curve.
Nicky Verd (Disrupt Yourself Or Be Disrupted)
In digital era, privacy must be a priority. Is it just me, or is secret blanket surveillance obscenely outrageous?
Marc Goodman (Future Crimes)
Visionary minds are in demand to bear us into the dawn of the deep digital era.
Pearl Zhu (Thinkingaire: 100 Game Changing Digital Mindsets to Compete for the Future (Digital Master Book 8))
This is the cusp of an age at least as exciting and as brimful of potential as the early days of the printing press.
Sara Sheridan
Future is the most difficult problem of our era.
Pearl Zhu (Digital Valley: Five Pearls of Wisdom to Make Profound Influence (Digital Master Book 3))
The era of artificial intelligence has arrived. You, who only felt far from artificial intelligence, and the growing dream trees, are now inseparable from artificial intelligence.
Enamul Haque (The Ultimate Modern Guide to Artificial Intelligence: Including Machine Learning, Deep Learning, IoT, Data Science, Robotics, The Future of Jobs, Required Upskilling and Intelligent Industries)
In today's digital era, a strong understanding of the current digital and social media landscape can lead to much success offline in the business world as well.
Germany Kent
We no longer live in a mass-media world with a few centralized choke points with just a few editors in charge, operated by commercial entities and governments. There is a new, radically different mode of information and attention flow: the chaotic world of the digitally networked public sphere (or spheres) where ordinary citizens or activists can generate ideas, document and spread news of events, and respond to mass media. This new sphere, too, has choke points and centralization, but different ones than the past. The networked public sphere has emerged so forcefully and so rapidly that it is easy to forget how new it is. Facebook was started in 2004 and Twitter in 2006. The first iPhone, ushering in the era of the smart, networked phone, was introduced in 2007. The wide extent of digital connectivity might blind us to the power of this transformation. It should not. These dynamics are significant social mechanisms, especially for social movements, since they change the operation of a key resource: attention… Attention is oxygen for movements. Without it, they cannot catch fire.
Zeynep Tufekci (Twitter and Tear Gas: The Power and Fragility of Networked Protest)
think the biggest innovations of the twenty-first century will be the intersection of biology and technology. A new era is beginning, just like the digital one was when I was his age.
Walter Isaacson (Steve Jobs)
Pero una razón aún mejor para desconfiar del capitalismo es el modo en que ha destruido las bases sociales de la codependencia instaurando un proyecto socialmente carcinógeno y nihilista.
César Rendueles (Sociofobia: El cambio político en la era de la utopía digital)
the true birth of the digital age, the era in which electronic devices became embedded in every aspect of our lives, occurred in Murray Hill, New Jersey, shortly after lunchtime on Tuesday, December 16, 1947.
Walter Isaacson (The Innovators: How a Group of Hackers, Geniuses, and Geeks Created the Digital Revolution)
It matters because the emerging civic structures and spatial arrangements of the digital era will profoundly affect our access to economic opportunities and public services, the character and content of public discourse,
William J. Mitchell (City of Bits: Space, Place, and the Infobahn (The MIT Press))
Monte Carlo is able to discover practical solutions to otherwise intractable problems because the most efficient search of an unmapped territory takes the form of a random walk. Today’s search engines, long descended from their ENIAC-era ancestors, still bear the imprint of their Monte Carlo origins: random search paths being accounted for, statistically, to accumulate increasingly accurate results. The genius of Monte Carlo—and its search-engine descendants—lies in the ability to extract meaningful solutions, in the face of overwhelming information, by recognizing that meaning resides less in the data at the end points and more in the intervening paths.
George Dyson (Turing's Cathedral: The Origins of the Digital Universe)
School is often based not on problem solving, which perforce involves actions and goals, but on learning information, facts, and formulas that one has read about in texts or heard about in lectures. It is not surprising, then, that research has long shown that a student’s doing well in school, in terms of grades and tests, does not correlate with being able to solve problems in the areas in which the student has been taught (e.g., math, civics, physics).
James Paul Gee (The Anti-Education Era: Creating Smarter Students through Digital Learning)
Some of the most important technologies of our era, such as the fracking techniques developed over the past six decades for extracting natural gas, came about because of countless small innovations as well as a few breakthrough leaps.
Walter Isaacson (The Innovators: How a Group of Hackers, Geniuses, and Geeks Created the Digital Revolution)
The service and office workers, checkout clerks, account managers, and salespeople whose jobs can be consolidated and rendered redundant by the digital revolution are the modern version of the horses driven off their Depression-era farms.
James K. Galbraith (The End of Normal: The Great Crisis and the Future of Growth)
Fame has taken the place of religion in the 21st century. The Beyoncés and the Brangelinas of our world filling the void left by the gods and heroes of antiquity. But like most cliches, there's an element of truth to it. And the gods of old were merciless. For every Theseus who slays the Minotaur and returns home in triumph, there's an Ariadne abandoned on the isles of Naxos. There's an Aegeus, casting himself into the ocean at the sight of a black sail...In another life, I like to think that Luc O'Donnell and I might've worked out. In the short time I knew him, I saw a man with an endless potential trapped in a maze he couldn't even name. And from time to time, I think how many tens of thousands like him there must be in the world. Insignificant on a planet of billions, but a staggering number when considered as a whole. All stumbling about, blinded by reflected glory, never knowing where to step, or what to trust. Blessed and cursed by the Midas touch of our digital era divinity.
Alexis Hall (Boyfriend Material (London Calling, #1))
The very principles of economics suggest that scarcity, validity, and demand can transform anything, even a stone, into a Store-of-Value (SoV). Such an event will happen only once in an era and we are extremely fortunate to be witnessing the birth of a new type of SoV, the Crypto.
Mohith Agadi
Shortly before she died in 2011, Jean Jennings Bartik reflected proudly on the fact that all the programmers who created the first general-purpose computer were women: “Despite our coming of age in an era when women’s career opportunities were generally quite confined, we helped initiate the era of the computer.
Walter Isaacson (The Innovators: How a Group of Hackers, Geniuses, and Geeks Created the Digital Revolution)
Global warming, environmental degradation, global flows of economic speculation and risk taking, overpopulation, global debt, new viruses, terrorism and warfare, and political polarization are killing us. Dealing with big questions takes a long-term view, cooperation, delayed gratification, and deep learning that crosses traditional silos of knowledge production. All of these are in short supply today. In the United States and much of the developed world, decisions are based on short-term interests and gain (e.g., stock prices or election cycles), as well as pandering to ignorance. Such decisions make the world worse, not better, and bring Armageddon ever closer.
James Paul Gee (The Anti-Education Era: Creating Smarter Students through Digital Learning)
De hecho, el sistema del copyright estadounidense, y en particular la cláusula especial del derecho laboral-el dispositivo denominado work for hire-, propician la circulación mundial de los contenidos y su adaptación a todos los soportes. Al no definir al artista como único propietario de los derechos de la obra, al eliminar el final cut como derecho moral y no necesitar autorización previa, como ocurre con el denominado "derecho de autor" europeo, el copyright y el work for hire resultan particularmente idóneos para la mundialización y la era era digital. Permiten multiplicar un contenido en todos los soportes y facilitan el versioning y el Global Media. En cambio, reducen al mismo tiempo la dimensión artística de las obras y disminuyen los medios de protección de los creadores frente a la industria.
Frédéric Martel‏ (Cultura Mainstream: Cómo nacen los fenómenos de masas)

The lesson of the last decades is that neither massive grass-roots protests (as we have seen in Spain and Greece) nor well-organized political movements (parties with elaborated political visions) are enough - we also need a narrow, striking force of dedicated 'engineers' (hackers, whistle-blowers...) organized as a disciplined conspiratorial group. Its task will be to 'take over' the digital grid, to rip it out of the hands of the corporations and state agencies that now de facto control it.

The CIO is that one leader who can see everything that is happening within the organization," says Victor Fetter, CIO of LPL Financial. "The CIO looks at every transaction and every customer service experience that takes place on the digital platform. With that unique perspective, the CIO understand where efficiency is happening and where it is not. The position, at its most basic level, has moved from someone who just accepted the way things were, to someone who uses that visibility to create aha moments for all leaders across the organization.
Martha Heller (Be the Business: CIOs in the New Eras of IT)
Language is a productive force; like technology, it is not amenable to social control. In the postmodern era, both language and technology rule, but each shows signs of exhaustion. Today's symbolic reflects nothing much more than the habit of power behind it. Human connectedness and corporeal immediacy have been traded away for a fading sense of reality. The poverty and manipulation of mass communication is the postmodern version of culture. Here is the voice of industrial modernity as it goes cyber/digital/ virtual, mirroring its domesticated core, a facet of mass production.
John Zerzan (Twilight of the Machines)
The reality is that Ada’s contribution was both profound and inspirational. More than Babbage or any other person of her era, she was able to glimpse a future in which machines would become partners of the human imagination, together weaving tapestries as beautiful as those from Jacquard’s loom. Her appreciation for poetical science led her to celebrate a proposed calculating machine that was dismissed by the scientific establishment of her day, and she perceived how the processing power of such a device could be used on any form of information. Thus did Ada, Countess of Lovelace, help sow the seeds for a digital age that would blossom a hundred years later.
Walter Isaacson (The Innovators: How a Group of Hackers, Geniuses, and Geeks Created the Digital Revolution)
La televisión digital era magia. Internet también. Incluso el coche del padre, la maquina con la que antes los chicos conseguían dominar por primera vez el mundo físico, ahora la controlaba un ordenador. El diagnostico de un fallo no implicaba ponerse a desmontar un motor y pringarse de aceite. En el concesionario, el coche se enchufaba a otro ordenador impenetrable. Si al mobiliario técnico de la vida de Zach le pasaba algo —y en estos días las máquinas no chisporrotean encima de uno ni empiezan a soltar extraños bufidos ni se ponen a chillar—, a él nunca se le pasaría por la cabeza la idea de arreglarlo con sus propias manos. Para esas cosas había brujos, aunque el concepto mismo de reparación ya se había vuelto arcano; mucho más probable era ir a comprarse otra máquina que trabajaba mágicamente y que luego, mágicamente también, dejaba de funcionar. En conjunto, la especie humana estaba volviéndose cada vez más autoritaria en lo tocante a los mecanismos del universo. Individualmente, la experiencia de la mayoría eran una impotencia y una falta de comprensión flagrantes. La gente vivía en un mundo de supersticiones. Se fiaba del vudú, de hechizos y fetiches, de bolas de cristal cuyos caprichos no se podían manejar pero sin los cuales el gobierno de la vida cotidiana se paralizaba. La fe en que el ordenador se encendería una vez más y haría lo que se le pedía tenía un tinte religioso más que racional. Cuando la pantalla se oscurecía, los dioses estaban enfadados.
Lionel Shriver (So Much for That)
It’s clear where the world is going. We’re entering a world where every thermostat, every electrical heater, every air conditioner, every power plant, every medical device, every hospital, every traffic light, every automobile will be connected to the Internet. Think about what it will mean for the world when those devices are the subject of attack.” Then he made his pitch. “The world needs a new, digital Geneva Convention. It needs new rules of the road,” Smith said, intoning the words slowly for emphasis. “What we need is an approach that governments will adopt that says they will not attack civilians in times of peace, they will not attack hospitals, they will not attack the electrical grid, they will not attack the political processes of other countries.
Andy Greenberg (Sandworm: A New Era of Cyberwar and the Hunt for the Kremlin's Most Dangerous Hackers)
What would a final exam look like in a course organized around a complex problem that must be considered in the light of several disciplines? Students would be asked to write an extended take-home essay about "what it means to be an American."-- and they would know from the first day of class that this was the final exam question. The second part of the final exam would require students to present and defend their papers in a public exhibition where parents would observe and ask questions. The Students’ oral and written work would be assessed on their ability to display a range of evidence to make their points. They would have to meet a performance standard to get a Merit Badge in American Studies.” -- this is the essence of the digital portfolio. (page 139)

THERE ARE EXTRAORDINARY librarians in every age. Many of today’s librarians, such as Jessamyn West, Sarah Houghton, and Melissa Techman, have already made the transition and become visionary, digital-era professionals. These librarians are the ones celebrated in Marilyn Johnson’s This Book Is Overdue! and the ones who have already created open-source communities such as Code4Lib, social reading communities such as LibraryThing and GoodReads, and clever online campaigns such as “Geek the Library.” There are examples in every big library system and in every great library and information school. These leaders are already charting the way toward a new, vibrant era for the library profession in an age of networks. They should be supported, cheered on, and promoted as they innovate. Their colleagues, too, need to join them in this transformation.
John Palfrey (BiblioTech: Why Libraries Matter More Than Ever in the Age of Google)
However this future evolves, we will have to answer a pressing question: How will writers (or anyone else who creates content that can be digitized, from movies to music to apps to journalism) make a living in an era in which digital content can be freely replicated? That is now my greatest worry as I contemplate the so-called writing life that I hope to continue—and that I hope my daughter and all future generations will continue. For three hundred years, ever since the Statute of Anne was established in Britain, there has been a system under which people who created things, such as books or articles or music or pictures, had a right to benefit from copies that were made of them. Because of this “copyright” system, we have encouraged and rewarded three centuries of creativity in various fields of endeavor, and this has produced a flourishing economy based on the creation by talented individuals of intellectual property. Among other things, this allowed all sorts of people, ranging from Walker Percy on down to me, to make a living at the so-called writing life. May the next generation enjoy that delightful opportunity as well.
Walter Isaacson (American Sketches: Great Leaders, Creative Thinkers & Heroes of a Hurricane)
right to use Apple Corps for their record and business holdings. Alas, this did not resolve the issue of getting the Beatles onto iTunes. For that to happen, the Beatles and EMI Music, which held the rights to most of their songs, had to negotiate their own differences over how to handle the digital rights. “The Beatles all want to be on iTunes,” Jobs later recalled, “but they and EMI are like an old married couple. They hate each other but can’t get divorced. The fact that my favorite band was the last holdout from iTunes was something I very much hoped I would live to resolve.” As it turned out, he would. Bono Bono, the lead singer of U2, deeply appreciated Apple’s marketing muscle. He was confident that his Dublin-based band was still the best in the world, but in 2004 it was trying, after almost thirty years together, to reinvigorate its image. It had produced an exciting new album with a song that the band’s lead guitarist, The Edge, declared to be “the mother of all rock tunes.” Bono knew he needed to find a way to get it some traction, so he placed a call to Jobs. “I wanted something specific from Apple,” Bono recalled. “We had a song called ‘Vertigo’ that featured an aggressive guitar riff that I knew would be contagious, but only if people were exposed to it many, many times.” He was worried that the era of promoting a song through airplay on the radio was over. So Bono visited Jobs at home in Palo Alto, walked around the garden, and made an unusual pitch. Over the years U2 had spurned
Walter Isaacson (Steve Jobs)
Although thrilled that the era of the personal computer had arrived, he was afraid that he was going to miss the party. Slapping down seventy-five cents, he grabbed the issue and trotted through the slushy snow to the Harvard dorm room of Bill Gates, his high school buddy and fellow computer fanatic from Seattle, who had convinced him to drop out of college and move to Cambridge. “Hey, this thing is happening without us,” Allen declared. Gates began to rock back and forth, as he often did during moments of intensity. When he finished the article, he realized that Allen was right. For the next eight weeks, the two of them embarked on a frenzy of code writing that would change the nature of the computer business.1 Unlike the computer pioneers before him, Gates, who was born in 1955, had not grown up caring much about the hardware. He had never gotten his thrills by building Heathkit radios or soldering circuit boards. A high school physics teacher, annoyed by the arrogance Gates sometimes displayed while jockeying at the school’s timesharing terminal, had once assigned him the project of assembling a Radio Shack electronics kit. When Gates finally turned it in, the teacher recalled, “solder was dripping all over the back” and it didn’t work.2 For Gates, the magic of computers was not in their hardware circuits but in their software code. “We’re not hardware gurus, Paul,” he repeatedly pronounced whenever Allen proposed building a machine. “What we know is software.” Even his slightly older friend Allen, who had built shortwave radios, knew that the future belonged to the coders. “Hardware,” he admitted, “was not our area of expertise.”3 What Gates and Allen set out to do on that December day in 1974 when they first saw the Popular Electronics cover was to create the software for personal computers. More than that, they wanted to shift the balance in the emerging industry so that the hardware would become an interchangeable commodity, while those who created the operating system and application software would capture most of the profits.

John E. Kelly III (Smart Machines: IBM's Watson and the Era of Cognitive Computing)
It might sound undesirable to someday have to pay for things that are currently free, but remember, you’d also be able to make money from those things. And paying for stuff sometimes really does make the world better for everyone. Techies who advocated a free/open future used to argue that paying for movies or TV was a terrible thing, and that the culture of the future would be made of volunteerism, with the digital distribution funded by advertising, of course. This was practically a religious belief in Silicon Valley when the big BUMMER companies were founded. It was sacrilege to challenge it. But then companies like Netflix and HBO convinced people to pay a monthly fee, and the result is what is often called “peak TV.” Why couldn’t there also be an era of paid “peak social media” and “peak search”? Watch the end credits on a movie on Netflix or HBO. It’s good discipline for lengthening your attention span! Look at all those names scrolling by. All those people who aren’t stars made their rent by working to bring you that show. BUMMER only supports stars.

en la mayor empresa de ventas al por menor del mundo haciendo mal sus cuentas! Los bombillos CFL dan la misma cantidad de luz que los clásicos bombillos incandescentes, pero usan hasta ochenta por ciento menos electricidad. Wal-Mart confía que el dinero que sus clientes ahorrarán en las facturas de luz finalmente regresará a ellos, pues en los estantes donde antes se encontraban bombillos ahora verán otros productos a precios atractivos. ¡Sin embargo, no se acostumbre todavía a esos nuevos bombillos ahorradores CFL! Es posible que en el mundo de los bombillos estemos presenciando la misma evolución acelerada que vimos en la industria de la música, cuando pasamos de los discos de vinilo a la era digital, a través de los casetes y de los CD. La tecnología CFL, con diez años como líder en el mercado, ya vislumbra la amenaza de la tecnología LED: un bombillo LED es mucho más caro, pero puede durar hasta veinticinco años y su precio ya está cayendo dramáticamente. ¿Quién lo diría? ¡La decisión de cambiar un bombillo ya no es tan sencilla como era antes!
Richard Branson (El estilo Virgin)
resulta llamativo que en un tiempo definido por la extrema disponibilidad de información y datos, cargado de pruebas, hechos e investigación, nuestra vida esté más que nunca sometida a la «apariencia», al ser vistos, expuestos a la caducidad, a la precariedad de lo desechable. Llevados por la búsqueda de influencia y visibilidad, se pretende recompensar la opinión personal más alta, la más emotiva, la más radical, la que congrega y refuerza a «los que piensan lo mismo».
Remedios Zafra (El entusiasmo: Precariedad y trabajo creativo en la era digital)
Pero lo que, como Sibila, encuentra con mayor frecuencia es que su trabajo es convertido en afición, que su trabajo no es empleo, que su producción es valorada como consumo, y su fuerza productiva es rentabilizada por otros.
Remedios Zafra (El entusiasmo: Precariedad y trabajo creativo en la era digital)
Los trabajos culturales animan a una implicación entusiasta como manera de evidenciar el valor (inmaterial) de la pasión de un trabajo creativo, intelectual o estético que punza. Pero, simultáneamente, dicho entusiasmo participa en un proyecto de vulnerabilidad económica, sostenido en «unos ganan siempre y otros viven del entusiasmo y la vocación», justificando que se trabaje gratis o se pague por trabajar.

No son los creadores de época los que se dejan mecer como marionetas por los tiempos que viven, sino los que son capaces de enfrentar su dificultad y hacerla pensativa, hacerla incluso compartida.

Todavía hoy para muchas personas el acceso a la cultura se limita a la compra del libro más vendido y la visita al museo, al que se va y por el que se camina como quien pasea por un parque.

La creación es todavía uno de los pocos territorios que nos permite sumergirnos y romper la tendencia de una vida domesticada. Y he aquí que urge diferenciar el entusiasmo fingido del entusiasmo íntimo y escondido, que sigue fluyendo en hilos o en ríos, que lucha por no claudicar y se reclama «libre».

no cabe ceder a las imposiciones de una educación y un mundo desprovistos de arte y reflexión, cedidas al apagamiento artificial del dolor y vendidas al mercado y a la prisa. Y no ayuda que la educación y las instituciones públicas no estén sabiendo posicionar su valor y su sentido, enredadas en dominios del pasado, neutralizadas por procesos burocráticos de permanente posicionamiento y autoevaluación, y que sobrevivan apocándose sin resistencia, obedeciendo a las lógicas de mercado, dentro ya de su boca.

In the digital era, content is the most important asset a business can have. It's no longer your product or your service, it's the content you create about it (and around it) that gets you found and noticed.

The University of Chicago historian Alison Winter24 wrote a thought-provoking history of the role of memory in the twentieth century. She argues that our cultural inventions such as film and tape recorders and computers have changed the tasks we place on our memory and, intriguingly, serve as powerful metaphors for explaining how memory works in any historical era. She asserts that most of us still believe that the “pictures” we retrieve from our memory are what they are without reference to the nature of the cameras that took them. In my expansion here of her thinking, I am hypothesizing that film both provides a helpful metaphor for explaining what may be occurring in a child’s working memory, and also may itself have become a physiological habit of mind for viewing anything upon a screen. The upshot would be less effective uses of various forms of memory in today’s children, but not necessarily unalterable changes, at least at the start of childhood. There is some support for this

El problema estuvo en que anunciaron su producto como el «reproductor mp3 de 5 GB», que es exactamente el mismo mensaje de Apple de las «1.000 canciones en tu bolsillo»; la diferencia estriba en que Creative nos contó QUÉ era su producto, mientras que Apple nos habló de POR QUÉ lo necesitábamos.

It was time for Morse to make his first major demonstration of his invention. All he needed was an inaugural message. Based on a suggestion from the daughter of the patent commissioner who had supported Morse’s innovation, he tapped a well-known phrase from the end of the book of Numbers: WHAT HATH GOD WROUGHT? As Winchester notes, these words, when considered in isolation, “formed a simple declarative exclamation, a statement of Samuel Morse’s faith.” But in the context of the transformation this invention and its successors would spark, it was better understood as a “suitably portentous epigraph for an era of change that now commenced with unimagined speed and unimaginable consequences.

When we become an autonomous organization, we will be one of the largest unadulterated digital security organizations on the planet,” he told the annual Intel Security Focus meeting in Las Vegas. “Not only will we be one of the greatest, however, we will not rest until we achieve our goal of being the best,” said Young. This is the main focus since Intel reported on agreements to deactivate its security business as a free organization in association with the venture company TPG, five years after the acquisition of McAfee. Young focused on his vision of the new company, his roadmap to achieve that, the need for rapid innovation and the importance of collaboration between industries. “One of the things I love about this conference is that we all come together to find ways to win, to work together,” he said. First, Young highlighted the publication of the book The Second Economy: the race for trust, treasure and time in the war of cybersecurity. The main objective of the book is to help the information security officers (CISO) to communicate the battles that everyone faces in front of others in the c-suite. “So we can recruit them into our fight, we need to recruit others on our journey if we want to be successful,” he said. Challenging assumptions The book is also aimed at encouraging information security professionals to challenge their own assumptions. “I plan to send two copies of this book to the winner of the US presidential election, because cybersecurity is going to be one of the most important issues they could face,” said Young. “The book is about giving more people a vision of the dynamism of what we face in cybersecurity, which is why we have to continually challenge our assumptions,” he said. “That’s why we challenge our assumptions in the book, as well as our assumptions about what we do every day.” Young said Intel Security had asked thousands of customers to challenge the company’s assumptions in the last 18 months so that it could improve. “This week, we are going to bring many of those comments to life in delivering a lot of innovation throughout our portfolio,” he said. Then, Young used a video to underscore the message that the McAfee brand is based on the belief that there is power to work together, and that no person, product or organization can provide total security. By allowing protection, detection and correction to work together, the company believes it can react to cyber threats more quickly. By linking products from different suppliers to work together, the company believes that network security improves. By bringing together companies to share intelligence on threats, you can find better ways to protect each other. The company said that cyber crime is the biggest challenge of the digital era, and this can only be overcome by working together. Revealed a new slogan: “Together is power”. The video also revealed the logo of the new independent company, which Young called a symbol of its new beginning and a visual representation of what is essential to the company’s strategy. “The shield means defense, and the two intertwined components are a symbol of the union that we are in the industry,” he said. “The color red is a callback to our legacy in the industry.” Three main reasons for independence According to Young, there are three main reasons behind the decision to become an independent company. First of all, it should focus entirely on enterprise-level cybersecurity, solve customers ‘cybersecurity problems and address clients’ cybersecurity challenges. The second is innovation. “Because we are committed and dedicated to cybersecurity only at the company level, our innovation is focused on that,” said Young. Third is growth. “Our industry is moving faster than any other IT sub-segment, we have t

Traté de responder a esa pregunta. Comprendí que su estadística improvisada contenía una poderosa verdad acerca de la nueva economía de la industria en la era digital. Con una oferta ilimitada, nuestras suposiciones acerca de los papeles relativos de los nichos y los productos de éxito eran todas erróneas. La escasez requiere productos de gran popularidad; si hay muy poco espacio en los estantes de las tiendas, en la radio o en la televisión, sólo es posible llenarlo con los artículos que se venden mejor. Y si todo eso es accesible, toda la gente comprará.

Never in history has the human brain been asked to track so many data points. Everywhere, people rely on their cell phones, e-mail, and digital assistants in the race to gather and transmit data, plans, and ideas faster and faster. One could argue that the chief value of the modern era is speed, which the novelist Milan Kundera described as “the form of ecstasy that technology has bestowed upon modern man.

The era of digital DNA (if there ends up being one) is still a long way off. Million-fold improvements in the scale and speed of DNA synthesis are needed if it is to become a viable solution to the world’s growing data storage problem. But it is worth considering that the cost of DNA sequencing has dropped two-million-fold since 2003, a pace that exceeds Moore’s Law. And consider this: at a theoretical maximum density of 2 bits per nucleotide, all of the world’s data could be stored in a mere kilogram of DNA. That’s a lot of DNA—it’s also a lot of data! It is not difficult to envision a future in which the world’s data archiving centres are full of DNA chips instead of computer hard drives.

The long tail is a myth, a fact evidenced by the current music business, in which 80 percent of the revenue is generated by 1 percent of the content. Even at the height of the early blockbuster era, spawned by Michael Jackson’s Thriller, 80 percent of the revenue was spread among the top 20 percent of the content. So even in a different winner-takes-all scenario, the revenue was spread out among more artists than it is today. Economists have noted that winners “take all” in many sectors (including hedge funds), and that this has clearly contributed to global income equality, but in the digital media business it seems especially Darwinian. In a world where four hundred hours of video are uploaded to YouTube every minute of every day, the commodification of what was once considered an art (or at least a craft) has become inevitable. For all the stories promoted by Google about YouTube millionaires, the traffic statistics tell another story. Most YouTube videos have fewer than 150 views.

Por razones de patriotismo y de lealtad nacional, nunca difundí lo que escuché durante esos dos meses y medio, pero a fin de alertar al Teatro de Operaciones del Atlántico Sur sobre la vulnerabilidad de las transmisiones, elaboré un reporte escrito que hice llegar a la Casa Rosada y que, estimo, nunca fue leído ni tenido en cuenta. Imagino que si yo podía hacerme un pícnic con esas emisiones con apenas un receptor de comunicaciones Yaesu y una radio portátil digital Sony de maletín, la flota enemiga debió de hacer un desastre escuchando este circuito radiotelefónico, que era ideal para interpretar un montón de cosas.
