In order to plan and perform operations easier, New York surgeons have shown an augmented reality device that helps them in their work. The program in AR glasses converts images (MRI, CT, and more) into interactive 3D diagrams that are superimposed on the patient's body in real time.

[WHY PATIENCE MATTERS] "Are we going to be so obsessed with speed and immediate satisfaction? Maybe there is another form of relation to the world which is linked to patience, to taking the time to make things right. You cannot compress time at one point without compromising on quality." - Pierre-Alexis Dumas, Artistic Director, Hermès. Source: Gloss/TikTok

Will a super computer help unlock a cure for cancer in the near future? Consider this: Google's latest quantum computer, 'Sycamore', completed a calculation in just 6 seconds—a task that would take 'Frontier', the world's most powerful supercomputer, 47 years to finish. Remarkably, Sycamore is 241 million times faster than the quantum computer Google introduced just in 2019. Mind blowing engineering and technology 🤯

🇳🇱 "I hacked the Dutch Government and all I got was this lousy T-shirt"! This fantastic T-shirt (and the accompanying letter) is a reward for ethical hackers - all part of a genius initiative by the Dutch Government's National Cyber Security Centre to strengthen the Government's digital defences. They've literally rolled out a red carpet and invited ethical hackers to spot and report cyber vulnerabilities across Dutch Government websites and services. Their Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure (CPD) programme is a golden ticket for 'white hat hackers' to make the digital Netherlands safer, one bug at a time. "Ethical hackers" or "white hat hackers", are individuals who use their skills to protect and secure digital systems, networks, and data, rather than exploiting them for malicious intent. They often work to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses in systems, much like a cyber criminal might, but they do so in order to fix these issues and strengthen defenses, not to cause harm. Fantastic initiative by the Dutch Government. Goed gedaan! (or "well done!")👏🏼   Read more about the initiative and download the guidelines here: https://lnkd.in/gdG957ez (Pic via Reddit, Inc.)
