ROBERT STEELE: If you are a Contracting Officer or Contracting Officer's Technical Representative, this book will save your organization millions of dollars while radically altering your understanding of the good, the bad, and the ugly in computer-enabled analytic tradecraft.  It does not identify the open source alternatives — that is another book — but it does put a stake in  the heart of all the crap that is being offered now.

There definitely were developed human civilizations before this current one. Evidence of construction is emerging all over the place, that does not fit with our account of human history.

Houston Anthropologist Reveals Irrefutable Proof that Recorded History Is Wrong

Houston anthropologist, Dr. Semir Osmanagich, founder of the Bosnian Archaeology Park, the most active archaeology site in the world, declares that irrefutable scientific evidence exists of ancient civilizations with advanced technology that leaves us no choice but to change our recorded history.  An examination of the age of structures across the earth reveals conclusively that they were built by advanced civilizations from over 29,000 years ago.

Stephen E. Arnold: Big Data VERACITY & VALUE Join Volume, Variety, & Velocity (V5) — And We Still Only Process 1%…

VVVVV and Big Data

Somewhere along the line a marketer cooked up volume, variety, and velocity to describe Big Data. Well, VVV is good but now we have VVVVV. Want to know more about “value” and “veracity”? Navigate to “2 More Big Data V’s—Value and Veracity.” The new Vs are slippery. How does one demonstrate value. The write up does not nail down the concept. There are MBA type references to ROI, use cases, and brand. Not much numerical evidence or a credible analytic foundation is presented. Isn’t “value” a matter of perception. Numbers may not be needed. Veracity is also a bit mushy. What about Brian Williams’ and his oft repeated “conflation”? What about marketing collateral for software vendors in search of a sale? I typed 25 and moved on. Neither a big number nor much in the way of big data.

We tend to think of ships in pretty set and conventional ways. If I say a freighter you probably immediately have a an image in your mind. But one of the most interesting aspects of the conversion out of the carbon energy era is the development of wind-powered ships. This is not a small deal. As the report explains 90 per cent of the worlds trading goods move by ship at some point. This new technology it is estimated will reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 80 per cent.

Wind-powered freighters

To make ships more eco-efficient, engineers have been working with alternative fuels. A Norwegian engineer is currently pursuing a new approach: With VindskipTM, he has designed a cargo ship that is powered by wind and gas. Software developed by Fraunhofer researchers will ensure an optimum use of the available wind energy at any time. Read full press release.
