Activist Hacks Ashton Kutcher's Twitter Account To Push For Increased Security Ashton Kutcher, who traveled to technology conference TED this week, has been punk'd. That's what happens when you hang out on the same wireless network as a bunch of technology geeks -- who probably don't even need hacking-made-easy-tool application Firesheep to eavesdrop on Internet sessions on unencrypted Web pages. _NULL_

Angela Saini | India is an emerging geek superpower A scientific revolution sweeping India will soon place it firmly within the major world economiesIn the humid, palm-fringed surrounds of the annual Indian Science Congress in Kerala, the country's top researchers and politicians had come together to discuss what they could do to make their nation more powerful in science and technology. The congress was on a scale unimaginable anywhere else in the world – thousands crowded into huge white tents to hear lectures by physicists and rocket scientists, while wide-eyed schoolchildren posed for photographs with Nobel prize winners. Enthusiasm wasn't even weakened by the midday heat, which caused some visitors to faint while queueing for a nuclear power and space exhibition.It was there last year that the prime minister, Manmohan Singh, made clear India's big plan for its technological future: There's no doubt about it: the country is furiously pursuing development through science and technology. Tthe aim is to more than double investment in research and development, which could put it in the same league as Japan and the US.Most industrialised countries spend around 2% of GDP on research and development. Right now, India spends 0.8%, placing it alongside South Africa and Brazil. By next year it hopes to ramp this up to 1.2%, and in the longer term is determined to reach 2% – well ahead of China, on 1.5%. The UK, which spends around 1.8%, is freezing its science budget in cash terms for the next four years (which means a fall in real terms). So India's trajectory could eventually see it outpace Britain – once the world's science powerhouse. And it's a trajectory reflected in the rise of the world's 11th largest economy, with a GDP growth rate of around 9% – putting India hot on the heels of Russia and Canada, and already wealthi 科学革命は、抜本的なインドすぐケララ州で毎年インド科学会議の湿潤、椰子の。縁周囲には、国のトップの研究者や政治家は、彼らが自分たちの国を作る何ができるかを議論するために一緒に来ていた、世界の主要なeconomiesIn以内にしっかりと配置されますさらに、科学技術の強力な

Baseball's Best Pitchers For The Buck It's the countdown that baseball geeks cling to all winter: the number of days until pitchers and catchers report to spring training. Well, it's here. Clubs are welcoming their pitchers--at once their most valuable and riskiest assets--back to camps in Florida and Arizona.
Baseball's 30 teams sink over a billion dollars a year into live arms capable of snapping off Major League-quality fastballs, sinkers and sliders. They do so with the knowledge that a bad arm or damaged psyche can waste a big investment in no time. As they limber up for 2011, let's take a look at which pitchers delivered more than their money's worth last year. 投手と捕手までの日数は、訓練を春に報告：これは野球オタクは冬に固執することはカウントダウンです
Can Beer Power Team Intelligence? I have a camel sport coat. I got it one afternoon when Buns, my soul mate, presented me with a FedEx box, saying, “I bought you something you’ve always wanted.” Judging by the size of the box and recognizing that I am a bit of a Geek, I offered a few guesses. ‘Could be small tools, music CDs, a computer program, or maybe Cheez-its. No, I guess most people wouldn’t FedEx Cheez-Its (although I would!) 私はラクダのスポーツコートを持っています
Names You Need To Know: 2D Glasses Last month, when I ran down some of the best tech related April Fools' gags, one of the gags that I wished were real were ThinkGeek's De-3D Cinema Glasses, which purported to "eliminate the 3D effect from 3D movies, allowing you to watch in the comfort of 2D." I wanted a pair because I really can't stand 3D movies, for the most part, and I thought they'd be handy to have in the event that the only movie time available for a movie I wanted to see was in 3D. 先月、私が望んだ最高のハイテク関連のエイプリルフールギャグ、ギャグのいずれかのいくつかを駆け下りたときに。。u0026quot;3D映画から3D効果を排除するために主張されたThinkGeekのデ- 3Dシネマのメガネは、することができるようにした本物だった2次元の快適さで見ていて下さい。。u0026quot;私は実際にはほとんどの部分は、3D映画には耐えられないので、私はペアを望んで、私は彼らが映画の唯一の映画の時間が、使用可能なI 3Dでいた見たいと思ったのイベントで、あると便利だと思うの

Sports Analytics Conference: Seeing the Future My biggest takeaway from visiting the MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference on March 4-5: the feeling that the self described stat geeks making inroads into sports in recent years are just getting started. That a Boston convention center, where MIT number crunchers mingle with and exert influence over traditional scouts, executives and owners, is just a cocoon that will inevitably give rise to a growing stats-oriented sports landscape. 近年のスポーツ進出を行う自己記述のstatオタクはまだ始まったばかりだ、という印象は：March 4-5マサチューセッツ工科大学スローンスポーツAnalyticsの会議を訪問してから私の最大のお持ち帰り
The Trend Is Your Friend - Until It Isn't One of the interesting things about attending a conference of fellow market geeks (which is not considered a detrimental term with this crowd!) is listening to the running commentary about the stock market action over the two days of meetings. To be clear, this is not a group of individual investors but rather a gathering of the National Association of Active Investment Managers, which requires its members to be registered investment advisors - I.E. investment professionals. And given that this is a group designed for "active managers" there is a fair amount of trading acumen in the room at all times. 仲間の市場オタクの会議に出席して興味深いことの一つは、（この群衆の中に有害な用語とは見なされませんされている！）会議の2日間で、株式市場のアクションについて実行して解説を聞いている

On the slate is Facebook's unexpected new allegiance with Chinese search giant Baidu; the pair have announced they will be launching a new social network for the Chinese market.

For Middle East democracy, send in the geeks | Tom Glaisyer and Shawn Powers After the 1989 revolutions, the west sent free-market economists east. Now, we can all gain by being information society citizensWhen the Berlin Wall fell, the western response was swift and obvious: send in the free-market economists. Soviet Communism was a system structured for failure that had left a group of governments and citizens in need of political and cultural tools, as well as knowledge of markets and the institutions they require to function. Professor Jeff Sachs, the economist, was dispatched to Poland and across the former Soviet Union (FSU). Funding streams were brought online and bright students from the eastern bloc attended Harvard Business School and learned about how markets work. There were also parallel democracy building programs established. Partnerships and exchanges proliferated and the Soviet-era systems were transformed to engage and contribute to the global market economy. As the Mubarak regime steps out of the way, Gaddafi's collapses, and as Tunisia continues to re-establish its democratic roots, similar questions are raised with less obvious answers: what can be done to alleviate the extreme unemployment and income gaps that plague these countries? Certainly, the removal of the authoritarian regimes that oversaw these systems is a tremendous first step, but what what else must happen to ensure that the conditions that spurred these uprisings improve?The answer is, in part, right in front of us if we look closely at the banners that were waved by brave protesters in Cairo's Tahrir Square featuring three well-known organisations: Facebook, Twitter and al-Jazeera. This new, more democratic configuration of media gave voice to new players. While the revolutions taking place are fuelled by the blood, sweat and tears of the brave protesters tha 1989回転後、西、東自由市場経済を送った

The US can run on Google-power | Wendy M Grossman Google's investment in windfarms could be dismissed as another example of its ever-extending grasp – yet it will benefit us allThe western half of the United States has a deep-rooted distrust of government. The rich geeks of California especially, as Paulina Borsook documented in her 2000 book, Cyberselfish, have a snappish, libertarian relationship with it – even though the smooth roads, clean water and quality infrastructure they take for granted were provided by government funds, as were the beginnings of the technical base (computers, the internet) on which their businesses were built.It seems as though the richer and more successful the geek the more he believes he can do a better job allocating funds and building stuff than government can. And so we come to this week's announcement that Google is investing tens of millions of dollars in the Atlantic Wind Connection, on top of a prior $40m (£25m) investment in windfarms in North Dakota. The logic behind the Atlantic project: most of the US's population centres are along the north-east coast; transmission losses make windfarms in the midwest and beyond too distant to power those energy-hungry areas; there's lots of wind a lot closer just offshore in the Atlantic. But without cables in place to carry the electricity so generated to the existing power grid, what's the point of building windfarms? The investment Google and two other companies are making is aimed at getting that connection started, making the whole project more viable and therefore more likely to happen sooner rather than later.Obviously, this is not an investment that's going to benefit Google immediately – it will take years and billions of dollars before the project is complete. And it may never benefit the company directly by powering Google install まだそれは政府の根強い不信感を持って私たちは、米国の西半分をallTheの利益になる - ウィンドファームで、Googleの投資は、そのはこれまでに把。拡張の別の例として、解任される可能性があります

Science Weekly podcast: The BBC's David Shukman and the dangers of patenting genes The BBC's science and environment correspondent David Shukman joins us in the studio to discuss the BP oil spill and the pitfalls of reporting on climate change. In David's new book, Reporting Live From the End of the World, he describes his adventures as a roving environment correspondent. A gaggle of geeks recently invaded the Guardian's London headquarters for a hack day. Their leader, Jeremy Keith, reveals the results of two days of brainstorming. As part of its Who Am I? exhibition, London's Science Museum has held an event to mark the tenth anniversary of the first draft sequence of the human genome. We spoke to Mike Stratton, director of the Wellcome Trust's Sanger Institute, and nobel prizewinning biologist John Sulston, who tells us human gene patents restrict access to treatments and inhibit research. We dissect the BMJ's cancer study on mobile phone masts using our story tracker. The Guardian's Nell Boase and Observer's science editor Robin McKie are in the studio.
