Social Networks

These days, working with brands and sponsored campaigns is not the only way you can get paid for creating and sharing content. Some social media platforms will also reward creators for their hard work with financial incentives. But which companies pay for content, and how can you earn money from these platforms? Here are nine social media platforms that will pay you to create content. 1. Snapchat According to CNBC, Snapchat pays up to $1 million per day for content created on the platform. Snapchat users can submit their best snaps to Spotlight, an entertainment platform that shares this kind of content from around the world. The content is moderated and, if it meets Snapchat's requirements, will be shared. This means that other users can find your snap in both stories and search results. If your snap goes viral, you will be notified that you're eligible to receive a Spotlight Payout. You can earn multiple payouts, though, according to Snapchat Support, this service is only available in selected countries.  » Read More

Hybrid and multi-cloud architectures are all the rage in enterprise IT infrastructure. But enabling the flexibility to deploy the right tool for each task requires a complex set of technologies that interlinks all the varied assets. That creates a bigger attack surface for hackers. The more services you rely on to run your business, the harder it is to keep track of how secure they all are. Some of the most recent examples of this problem have been tied to APIs (Application Programming Interfaces). In the past few months, Peloton, Clubhouse, Experian, Equifax, Instagram, Amazon, and PayPal have all been in the news for API-related cybersecurity problems. APIs are how applications talk to one another. A mobile app or a web frontend, for example, might use an API to communicate with a backend database. That means the backend database is vulnerable if the API is exploited. An API used by Clubhouse, for example, let anyone query the entire database of the social network’s public user profiles. According to a report released in February by Salt Security,  » Read More

Any opportunity for endearing photos of young Giannis Antetokounmpo is a good one.A Twitter thread for Milwaukeeans caught some traction and yielded some fun results over the holiday break. It was a simple question by an account @GiannisDefender, "To all the Bucks fans who actually live in Milwaukee, have you ever met a Bucks player in public before."That unleashed a series of charming photos, including some of a much younger-looking Giannis Antetokounmpo. this count as public? played lightning with giannis in 2019. not often can you say you beat a two time mvp and dpoy in a game of lightning (he lost by forfeit tho…) still waiting on a full game @Giannis_An34 pic.twitter.com/nw4jky8kjn— jack (@babushkakov) July 6, 2021Giannis a few years ago at pick and save kids runnin up to him hugging his legs and taking pics I waited and by the time I wanted to take a pic the store was a ghost town 😂 he said in his deep voice let's take a selfie I said ok pic.twitter.com/ulmbCUbEn5— Curtis E.

By Chris Mueller  |  Special to The TimesDevin Bush became the latest victim of what I’ll term the “Steelers Curse,” whereupon a player, regardless of their ability level, ends up having their social media behavior completely eclipse whatever they do on the field.The worst tweet Bush sent over the holiday weekend – don’t bother looking it up – has already had its context stripped because the original poster took down a very cruel, awful video, one that Bush felt compelled to joke about. This represented a swift turn of events for the third-year linebacker, who originally garnered support from many fans for slamming men who use Tik Tok, before tucking his virtual tail between his legs and offering up a mea culpa to JuJu Smith-Schuster and Chase Claypool, who are big users of the app.All of this, of course, is immature nonsense, the byproduct of bored players and bored fans who hang on every word and deed of said players. This is not to say that Bush’s tweetstorm will or should be forgotten in a few months, but if he plays well, it will absolutely fade into the background.About that “playing well,” part, though. That was the thing that got…

Mark Carroll and Leon Robinson live-streamed their police chase - until it ended with them being caught TWO burglars proved they aren’t the brightest sparks after live-streaming their police pursuit over Snapchat – which ended when they were caught and arrested by officers. Leon Robinson laughed and egged on accomplice Mark Gary Carroll as they were pursued by officers after trying to steal vital equipment from a Teesdale farm last month. Read more: Durham sex offender jailed The pair started the chase after being disturbed trying to take a Polaris ATV vehicle from a farm building in Barnard Castle. An eagle-eyed neighbour quickly circulated their van’s details on the rural community’s Rural Watch Whatsapp group and reported them to the police. Officers then pursued the vehicle and, despite being rammed, were able to intercept the van and arrest the pair. The farmer’s ATV was also recovered. At Durham Crown Court both Carroll, 33, of Kesteven Road, Hartlepool, and Robinson, 32, of South Road, Hartlepool, were sentenced to 20 months in prison and ordered to pay £156 to the farmer. Carroll, who was driving the getaway van, was also banned from driving for 22 months. Detective Sergeant Sarah Hindmarsh, of Durham Constabulary…

Computer servers are as taxing on the climate as global air traffic combined, thereby making the green transition in IT an urgent matter. The researchers, from the University of Copenhagen, expect major IT companies to deploy the algorithm immediately. One of the flipsides of our runaway internet usage is its impact on climate due to the massive amount of electricity consumed by computer servers. Current CO2 emissions from data centres are as high as from global air traffic combined - with emissions expected to double within just a few years. Only a handful of years have passed since Professor Mikkel Thorup was among a group of researchers behind an algorithm that addressed part of this problem by producing a groundbreaking recipe to streamline computer server workflows. Their work saved energy and resources. Tech giants including Vimeo and Google enthusiastically implemented the algorithm in their systems, with online video platform Vimeo reporting that the algorithm had reduced their bandwidth usage by a…
