Modern workloads are experiencing an ever-growing need for network efficiency, privacy, and security. Businesses and enterprises that depend on solutions require additional hardware and integration, which introduces additional complexity and points of failure.

BBT.live’s proprietary technology, recognized by the Israel Innovation Authority, is device agnostic. It integrates with a variety of different hardware platforms (uCPE) without the need for time-consuming customization.

BBT.live’s software-defined connectivity platform can be installed on NVIDIA BlueField, bringing additional networking functionality to computer and server manufacturers (OEMs) and their customers. Deploying BBT.live’s software-defined connectivity capabilities on NVIDIA BlueField DPUs will ensure immediate access to the latest secure connectivity

Apple and Epic team up for macOS health records software

Posted on 29/11/2022

Apple is continuing to push into health care, this time striking a deal with Epic Systems for a Mac-friendly version of its health records app. As reported by axios, the deal will see Epic Systems create a version of its health records tool that “is easier to run on Apple devices.”

Apple had reportedly pushed for Epic to create a “native version of the service” for Apple devices, but the two companies settled on this compromise of a version that is “easier to run on Apple devices” instead. Apple hasn’t acknowledged this deal, however Axios says it was confirmed by a “source inside Epic.”

The deal comes despite previous disagreements between Epic and Apple over health records and data sharing, Axios explains. Apple has pushed for easing health record sharing requirements, something that Epic is firmly opposed to. Epic argued that rule changes focused on “interoperability” would be “overly burdensome on our health system and would endanger patient privacy.”

Epic Systems is the largest electronic health records vendor in the United States, with “roughly half the population’s medical records” being stored in a system powered by Epic software and technology. The lack of well-developed Mac, iPad, and iPhone software from

As Bolsonaro challenges election loss, experts push back on voting machine software bug claims

Posted on 28/11/2022

More than three weeks after losing a re-election bid, outgoing Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro on Tuesday blamed a software bug and demanded the electoral authority annul votes cast on most of the nation’s electronic voting machines, though independent experts say the bug doesn’t affect the reliability of results.

Such an action would leave Bolsonaro with 51 per cent of the remaining valid votes — and a re-election victory, Marcelo de Bessa, the lawyer who filed the 33-page request on behalf of the president and his Liberal Party, told reporters.

The electoral authority has already declared victory for Bolsonaro’s nemesis, leftist former president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, and even many of Bolsonaro’s allies have accepted the results. Protesters in cities across the country have steadily refused to do the same, particularly with Bolsonaro declining to concede.

Liberal Party leader Valdemar Costa Neto and an auditor hired by the party told reporters in Brasilia, the country’s capital, that their evaluation found all machines dating from before 2020 — nearly 280,000 of them, or about 59 per cent of the total used in the Oct . 30 runoff — lacked individual identification numbers in internal logs.

No alarms and no surprises, Lightroom is the most popular editing software

Posted on 28/11/2022

It’s no surprise that the most popular photo editing software among photographers is the one almost everyone has heard of – Adobe Lightroom. For most photographers, it offers all the editing features you could ever need, it’s easy to use and can be bought either on its own or part of a creative cloud package.

In a recent survey, Shotkit (opens in new tab) asked 657 photographers about their photo editing software (opens in new tab). 37% of the photographers asked were professionals while 63% were amateurs but regardless, Adobe Lightroom (opens in new tab) was still the most popular software, with an enormous 58% of photographers using it.

Although most people stick with Lightroom because of its easy-to-use advanced features which now include several AI-powered tools, people also love the fact you can quickly open images from Lightroom in Photoshop, users can save their own presets but also because change is scary! The downside to Lightroom is that it’s a subscription-only software, and even though prices start at less than $10/£10 a month, some people don’t want the commitment of paying monthly.

Bitcoin miners look to software to help balance the Texas grid

Posted on 27/11/2022

Although Bitcoin (BTC) mining remains a controversial topic, it’s becoming more common to hear how Bitcoin mining can help balance grid demand. This is being demonstrated in the state of Texas, as Bitcoin miners are able to participate in demand response programs, which incentivize miners to turn off their operations during peak demand.

A spokesperson from the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) — the organization that operates Texas’s electrical grid — told Cointelegraph that crypto loads can have impacts on the grid just like any large load. Yet, they noted that crypto miners can help stabilize the grid by shutting down their demand for electricity in real time:

“Crypto mining is extraordinarily responsive and can turn off in a fraction of a second and remain off as long as needed. We are working closely with the crypto mining industry and have established a large flexible load task force to make sure we move forward with the grid reliability and Texas load growth in mind.”

On March 25, ERCOT established an interim process to ensure that new large loads, such as Bitcoin miners, can be connected to the ERCOT grid. While evaluations for large load interconnections is not a new
