NETIQUETTE RULE

 

Share expert knowledge






One of the basics of online behaviour is the Netiquette rules. Today we are going to discuss rule number 6. A rule that for me seems to be key to be able to learn and enjoy your online experience to the fullest.
Share the knowledge of experts so that other people can soak up valuable information for your knowledge. It is appreciated that when you don't know about a subject yourself, you can find almost all the information about it compiled and verified their own sources. So you should do the same when you see a topic that is difficult to learn about, compile and write about. Even if you are the expert on the subject, don't be selfish and keep it to yourself, maybe someone else who also knows about your subject can help you to improve your knowledge about it. 

As an example, we could say that you need to know about blockchain. During your research path you come across a lot of nonsense and you see that it is a very confusing subject, difficult to get the concept into your head. Well, if you compile all the information that has helped you the most to understand what blockchain is and publish it (with sources included of course) either in text (blog), video (Youtube), audio (Podcast), you would do a favour to many people in the future who want to know about the subject.
Personally, I have had many experiences of finding compiled and understandable information and the truth is that it is much appreciated.

"""
Every opinion is valuable, even if you think it is nonsense, maybe it can be useful to someone else (obviously within limits).

Share and you will make the virtual world a better place.

TWO INTERESTING REPLACED AND OBSOLETED TECHNOLOGIES

  PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) The ancestor of the modern mobile phone, a personal digital assistant that offered limited access to many modern capabilities such as Internet access, word processing, touch screen functionality and more. They were very successful in the 1980s. They were programmed using a programming language called BASIC. The suppliers of these, some of them are known today, such as Casio and Acer. In 1995 the market for these grew even more thanks to the company Palm, Inc. They even put RAM and processors in these devices years later. After the 2000s, once smartphones became popular, PDAs quickly became obsolete, but before that time they were a favourite of business people all over the world. FAX (Facsimile) Also sometimes called telefax or telecopy, the humble machine was essentially a modern version of the telegrams. For many years, it allowed individuals and companies to transmit scanned documents. There were different types of transmission: - Cable transmi...

THREE INTERESTING IT SOLUTIONS

1980s: Machine Learning Do you know that today's massive algorithms probably know you better than you know of yourself? It all started with Alan Turin saying a famous and interesting phrase in the 1950s: Can machines think? That is when they started to investigate algorithms in which machines could learn by themselves from data. Until a few years later, when an IBM researcher named Arthur Lee Samuel created the first machine learning algorithm in the game of checkers and popularised it among IT researchers. For various reasons, there were about 25 years without any optimal algorithm results and the popularity of machine learning declined considerably, until the 1980s, when the backpropagation algorithm (neural network) was developed. From then on, different algorithms were developed and improved. Until today where machine learning is one of the most used fields collecting massive amounts of data and looking for patterns among them (without privacy) to improve the experience of each...

Cybersecurity in Spain

  Currently, 93% of Spanish citizens use the Internet. This is why new projects are already appearing in order to increase cybersecurity as much as possible. In Spain there are two institutions created for cybersecurity under the name of INCIBE-CERT and CCN-CERT. The first one is focused on companies and citizens and the second one only for the government.  I think it is worth making a separation before analysing security in Spain: before and after the appearance of COVID.  Before the pandemic there was not so much concern about cybersecurity, which has affected us in the state of inferiority that we are currently in compared to the UK or Germany. There were a few projects going on but at the official conferences, most of the companies did not attend, they had their minds set on their own company's profit or other reasons. But what's the point of getting wealth when they can take it away from you in hours through malware. The key to Spain's focus on internet security was ...
