The shift in open source: A new kind of platform war | Network World - 0 views

  •  
    "For many years, open source software seemingly lay at the fringe of the tech industry. A subculture that many didn't understand and that seemingly threatened the broader industry. It is amazing how much has changed. Today, open source software, especially Linux, is so pervasive that you probably interact with it every day. From supercomputers to GoPros and nearly every data center in the world, open source software is the default platform."

Las falsificaciones infectan la economía | Economía | EL PAÍS - 0 views

    " Xavier Fontdeglòria Twitter María Fernández Twitter Pekín / Madrid 17 JUL 2016 - 00:29 CEST En el octavo y último golpe al mercado municipal de A Pedra, en Vigo, en la bautizada como Operación Cuarzo, la policía encontró 24.000 objetos falsificados entre ropa, calzado, joyas y tabaco. La actuación puso el punto final a varias décadas de impunidad de una actividad que llegó a ser un reclamo turístico para la ciudad costera gallega. En realidad, era algo más que eso. La juez embargó 1.100 cuentas a 65 vendedores, 38 coches, 140 viviendas y un barco. "Era una de las grandes vergüenzas nacionales", recuerda en su despacho la comisaria Mónica Dopico, inspectora jefe de la sección de delitos contra la propiedad industrial de la Policía Nacional. Hasta 2015, el centro comercial figuraba, por su titularidad pública, en la Notorius Market List, una lista mundial de puntos negros en piratería que elabora el Gobierno de EE UU, pero ninguna de las siete operaciones policiales anteriores había tenido éxito en los juzgados. A la espera de juicio, esta vez la victoria tampoco está garantizada."

Institute for Responsible Technology - GMO Myths and Truths report - 0 views

  •  
    "Executive Summary GMO Myths and Truths report Genetically modified (GM) crops are promoted on the basis of a range of far-reaching claims from the GM crop industry and its supporters. They say that GM crops: Are an extension of natural breeding and do not pose different risks from naturally bred crops Are safe to eat and can be more nutritious than naturally bred crops Are strictly regulated for safety Increase crop yields Reduce pesticide use Benefit farmers and make their lives easier Bring economic benefits Benefit the environment Can help solve problems caused by climate change Reduce energy use Will help feed the world. However, a large and growing body of scientific and other authoritative evidence shows that these claims are not true. On the contrary, evidence presented in this report indicates that GM crops: Are laboratory-made, using technology that is totally different from natural breeding methods, and pose different risks from non-GM crops Can be toxic, allergenic or less nutritious than their natural counterparts Are not adequately regulated to ensure safety Do not increase yield potential Do not reduce pesticide use but increase it Create serious problems for farmers, including herbicide-tolerant "superweeds", compromised soil quality, and increased disease susceptibility in crops Have mixed economic effects Harm soil quality, disrupt ecosystems, and reduce biodiversity Do not offer effective solutions to climate change Are as energy-hungry as any other chemically-farmed crops Cannot solve the problem of world hunger but distract from its real causes - poverty, lack of access to food and, increasingly, lack of access to land to grow it on. Based on the evidence presented in this report, there is no need to take risks with GM crops when effective, readily available, and sustainable solutions to the problems that GM technology is claimed to address already
