First it was blogs, then came the podcasts. Where we once used blackberry messenger, WhatsApp voice notes are now commonplace. Before we asked Alexa or Siri, it was Jeeves.The internet is there to make things easier, and for those of us that are able, what can be simpler than voicing our thoughts? The trouble is, as the Turkish sociologist and tech seer Zeynep Tufekci explained so eloquently, returning to an oral culture “is not suited to certain kinds of knowledge accumulation and legibility of the world”.Our institutions, which rely so heavily on the written and print culture, “will not hold without adjustment”, she warned. One new app in particular is helping to prove her point. A friend invited me to join the iPhone-only  » Read More

Athletes Brands Investments & Partnerships Quarterback Trevor Lawrence, Tight End Sean Culkin Get Paid in Crypto By Zoe Strozewski April 27, 2021 Presumptive first overall NFL draft pick Trevor Lawrence and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Sean Culkin are the latest athletes to be paid in cryptocurrency. Culkin will convert his entire 2021 salary to Bitcoin, while Lawrence’s new endorsement deal with Blockfolio will see his bonus paid exclusively in crypto.  Culkin, 27, will exchange his $920,000 salary for Bitcoin through the money transferring app Strike. In December, Carolina Panthers lineman Russell Okung announced that half of his $13 million contract will be converted to Bitcoin through Strike.  “Considering my career—particularly its physical demands, and brevity—it makes the most logical sense to be paid in sound money that I believe protects its purchasing power over time,” Culkin said in a statement on Monday.   Cryptocurrency investment app Blockfolio announced a multi-year sponsorship with Lawrence on Monday;  » Read More

Picture this. You are “walking” the exhibitor floor. You stop to chat with fellow attendees along the way while “live” entertainment delights everyone around. The emcee for the conference calls everyone to the main stage to take their “seats” for the day’s keynote presentation. After popping around the conference for nearly two hours, it is time to head up to the roof for an after-party complete with stunning vistas, a dance floor, and a bar.  This may seem like the traditional formula for any conference (even The Special Event happening this July) but, this setup is anything but traditional. It is, in this example, the virtual conference software from AllSeated: exVo (allseated.com/exvo) where attendees can be immersed in a virtual world as an alternative to sitting on a Zoom meeting.  This is just one example of how technology will dramatically shift in 2021 as we continue to navigate COVID-19 and how live events will be conducted moving forward.  It is staying virtual for a while Live events will continue to look different for the foreseeable future,  » Read More

Last Saturday, two men were killed in Texas after a speeding 2019 Tesla Model S crashed into a tree while negotiating a turn. The data logs recovered showed the car’s autopilot was not enabled. The car did not have the FSD feature either, Elon Musk tweeted on Monday. FSD is a $10,000 add-on feature that allows vehicles to self-park and automatically change lanes on highways. Further, the street where the accident happened did not have lane lines to turn the standar pilot on, he added. Your research as a private individual is better than professionals @WSJ! Data logs recovered so far show Autopilot was not enabled & this car did not purchase FSD.Moreover, standard Autopilot would require lane lines to turn on, which this street did not have.— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) April 19, 2021 According to sources, Tesla said autopilot and FSD features do not make its vehicles fully autonomous and drivers are advised to keep their hands on the wheel at all times.  » Read More

ERBIL (Kurdistan 24) – The Kurdistan Region’s youth have flocked to a new social media platform on which they can exchange ideas on a variety of topics, mainly the social issues and barriers they face in society. Clubhouse, an audio-based, invitation-only app, recently took off in popularity around the world, particularly in the Middle East and the Kurdistan Region, where users can speak freely about subjects that concern them.
