![]() ![]() In the second half, I’ll walk through some potential solutions and areas I think we can work on. The point of the first half of this article will be to show you that cyber is a very serious threat - perhaps even more serious than you might already think it is, because:Ī) There is more motivation for cyber attacks than ever beforeī) It has never been easier to carry out an attack against an organization I believe Josh is right in his analysis, and I’ve decided to dedicate an entire post to essentially unpacking this portion of his talk, and walking through what we can do about this. In the early late 90’s and early 2000’s, cyber attacks against industrial facilities were the stuff of Hollywood.īy 2010, elegant computer viruses destroyed a key Iranian nuclear facility, and illustrated to the world just how vulnerable digital equipment was to remote sabotage.” But removing humans has meant trading predictable downtime - people get sick - for the unpredictable downtime of digital catastrophe. “Embedded compute has produced fantastic efficiencies. Cars, coffee mugs, factories, football stadiums.” “Over the past thirty years, the West has embarked on terrifying project: to turn nearly everything that is not a computer into a computer. However, it has also opened us up to new kinds of risks that we weren’t cognizant of when we first started out on this journey.Īs Joshua Steinman, a former US National Security Council member and industrial cybersecurity founder, said in a talk earlier this year : Information technology has greased the gears of global commerce, allowing us to connect to each other from anywhere and do things like monitor critical industrial systems remotely. Globalization has led many, many people out of poverty, but it has also eliminated redundancy to a degree that makes global supply chains fragile. The last 30 years have been about efficiency. ![]() The second half of this post will highlight potential solutions and the people & companies working to bring them to fruition. I’ll warn you, the first half of this post will not read as ‘optimistic.’ But I believe that it’s important to acknowledge truth. “This kind of war means that all means will be in readiness, that information will be omnipresent, and the battlefield will be everywhere ” “When we suddenly realize that all these non-war actions may be the new factors constituting future warfare, we have to come up with a new name for this new form of war: Warfare which transcends all boundaries and limits, in short: unrestricted warfare. “Does a single ‘hacker’ attack count as a hostile act or not? Can using financial instruments to destroy a country’s economy be seen as a battle? Did CNN’s broadcast of an exposed corpse of a US soldier in the streets of Mogadishu shake the determination of the Americans to act as the world’s policeman, thereby altering the world’s strategic situation?” Note that this book is from 1999*,* well before cyber warfare was on most peoples’ radar: ![]() Russia has terrorized Ukraine with attacks on its power grid, and the CCP is making use of TikTok to spy on dissidents and journalists.Ĭonsider this passage from Unrestricted Warfare, a book of translated documents from two colonels in China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA). North Korea is rumored to be funding their nuclear program by hacking DeFi protocols. The West’s adversaries have stepped up their game on the cyber front. Francis Fukuyama was wrong about the ‘end of history.’ Violence is still in play, and global conflict seems to be escalating, whether we like it or not. ![]()

![]() ![]() If the player does not have a card in that suit, then he needs to play a card of any other suit. The following card should be in the same suit as the first card. In the clockwise direction, each of the other players shows a hand on the table as a follow-up card. On the other turn, the collector of the previous turn deals the first card. On the first turn, the player holding the hand of the two of Clubs (2♣) plays that two of Clubs (2♣) as the first card. The game is suited for people of all ages who like Hearts or card games.The winner of the game is whoever has the lowest score when the game ends.The game ends when any player has 100 or more points.If you score all points on a round you can decide if you would prefer to subtract 26 points from your total score or add 26 points to all of your competitors.Each Heart is worth a point & the Queen of Spades is worth 13 points.If you get stuck eating the Queen of Spades you already scored half the points, so if nobody else has scored any points yet it may make sense to see if you can shoot the moon.If a suit has been laid many times be careful with casually taking a trick where someone else may throw the Queen of Spades on it.Avoid taking tricks and the deal unless you have low Spades to lead back, have a high Spade you are discarding last, or you are trying to shoot the moon.In general you want to get rid of your highest cards you can without winning tricks, or get rid of high Spades if you are throwing last.The objective of the game is to not score points.The Queen of Spades is worth 13 points.Players do not score points for winning tricks, but score points if any Hearts or the Queen of Spades are thrown on a trick they win.Players must follow the suit led if they have it in their hand.Hearts are considered broken if a player has previously thrown a Heart on another trick.Hearts may not be led until the suit is broken or the player leading a Heart has nothing but Hearts in their hand.After the first hand the Queen of Spades can be thrown any time.If a player does not have any Clubs they may not throw the Queen of Spades or a Heart on the first trick.Players must follow suit if they have a card of the suit led in their hand.The game starts with a player throwing the 2 of Clubs.Try to avoid having large runs of cards near the upper limit of any suit unless you also have many low ranked cards in that suit or are trying to shoot the moon.If you can pass cards to limit yourself to holding 3 or fewer suits then when the fourth suit is thrown you can lay off Hearts or a Queen of Spades on it if you have it. ![]()
![]() Relationships Between Quantitative Datasetsīefore we can evaluate a relationship between two datasets, we must first decide if we feel that one might depend on the other. First, though, we need to lay some graphical groundwork. The statistical method of regression can find a formula that does the best job of predicting a score on the final exam based on the student’s score on the midterm, as well as give a measure of the confidence of that prediction! In this section, we’ll discover how to use regression to make these predictions. A student with a really good grade on the midterm might be overconfident going into the final, and as a result doesn’t prepare adequately. Of course, that relationship isn’t set in stone a student’s performance on a midterm exam doesn’t cement their performance on the final! A student might use a poor result on the midterm as motivation to study more for the final. Similarly, if a student did poorly on the midterm, they probably also did poorly on the final exam. It seems reasonable to expect that there is a relationship between those two datasets: If a student did well on the midterm, they were probably more likely to do well on the final than the average student. For example, a student who wants to know how well they can expect to score on an upcoming final exam may consider reviewing the data on midterm and final exam scores for students who have previously taken the class. One of the most powerful tools statistics gives us is the ability to explore relationships between two datasets containing quantitative values, and then use that relationship to make predictions.

In addition to firearms, Wang’s signature weapon is the katana, which is limited to close-quarters combat unlike ranged firearms, but is also very effective against enemies. Non-firearm weapons include crossbows that can fire both ordinary bolts and sticky grenades that can be remotely detonated at will. These also include secondary firing modes that allow players to alternate between different modes or rates of fire. Firearms range from fictional versions of pistols, submachine guns, shotguns and rocket launchers, some of which can be dual-wielded. Wang is equipped with various firearms that require ammunition that can be found throughout stages. Levels themselves are divided into chapters, each with Wang progressing through smaller stages to large open battle arenas that have side and hidden areas, occasionally allowing another route. Shadow Warrior is a single-player first-person shooter where players take control of the modern ninja mercenary Lo Wang from a first-person perspective as he fights through levels of demonic hordes. A sequel, Shadow Warrior 2, was released in October 2016. It was also released for Mac OS X and Linux in April 2015. The game was later released for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in October 2014. Shadow Warrior was released for Windows in September/October 2013. It features the same character Lo Wang and a modern era setting with Asian mythology elements, all of which were redesigned with modern, full 3D graphics and new gameplay features, while also being a throwback to classic first-person shooters. The game is a reboot of the 1997 original of the same name, developed by 3D Realms and published by GT Interactive, licensed out by Devolver Digital.

But for now, for my purposes, creating a new VM and then reinstalling those apps which run under Lion but not High Sierra will accomplish what I need to do. If I do decide to try one of these routes in the future, I'll update this thread. There may still be a way to P2V an OS X installation by creating a system image with Carbon Copy Cloner, Super Duper, or Disk Utility.or even dd for a hardcore command-line approach, and then using it as the install media for Virtualbox. Then you gave me the tip about creating a new VM instead, and I knew I had to figure out a way to create a Lion install media (as detailed in my previous post). Those two facts made me realize that P2V'ing my Lion box was probably going to be essentially impossible. And Virtualbox, AFAIK, does not provide a similar tool. Unfortunately, it does not support OS X/Mac OS. VMware, as I'm sure you know, provides a "converter" tool to assist in P2V'ing existing installations. I have a bit more experience creating and using VMs with VMware Player. I have to admit that I'm pretty new at Virtualbox. Socratis wrote:We didn't actually "solve" the p2v of a 10.7 installation. ![]() I hope the links I listed might help anyone else trying to do the same thing. So in the end I was able to create my Lion installer on an SD card, and then used that to create a new VM in Virtualbox, and it runs perfectly. The article was written for Mavericks, but it worked for Lion too. I downloaded the installer fine, but I kept getting an error message when attempting to use Disk Utility to restore it to the SD card. I needed to do a little tweak to Macworld's instructions. Macworld to the rescue! I found an article on how to create a Lion installer media. It was starting to seem like P2V'ing the existing machine was going to be a mission, and the fact is, I don't have anything on it that couldn't be relatively easily reinstalled, why not just create a new VM with a clean Lion install, and transfer/reinstall anything needed? Ah, but the problem remained, no installation media. ![]() What do you have in your 10.7 that you can't install afterwards on the VM? If you think about it, you could have a fresh start with a new VM, without all the garbage that gets accumulated over the years. Leftovers: 1 backup HD, in case something goes wrong. Cost: 1 new HD + 1 USB3 HD case (if you don't have one). You'll need the external USB3 HD case, *and* to make a USB pass-through of the case to the guest. When the time comes to "restore" your user data/applications, pick "An external HD" and connect the HD that you retired.
![]() ![]() ![]() There isn't any particular value in leaving open the "sensors" window for HWiNFO while you are setting up the skin, or ever really. It is however, the best tool I have found for creating really robust Rainmeter skins that monitor sensor-based resources. These details will help you in ensuring that your computer is performing great and there is nothing to worry about.

While checking the Rainmeter version I realised that what was running was actually an older version than what I had downloaded, the reason being that the update had installed files directly into my D:\ drive main directory instead of the Rainmeter folder I replaced all files with in the folder with the updated ones, and before that had added Rainmeter.Jn_meter wrote: ↑ July 25th, 2020, 12:05 am There is a range of skins that make this possible.

Scholarly research and grey literature were searched for information on risk factors and health risks associated with tick exposure. The aim of this document is to review risk factors and health risks associated with tick exposure for Canadians and to review preventative measures to reduce tick exposures. This review is the first of four in a series on tick vectors in Canada. As the range of tick vectors increases across Canada so does the potential for exposure to emerging tick-borne pathogens. 1-5 Ticks are known vectors for bacterial, viral and protozoan pathogens, capable of infecting humans. It is well established that the range of tick populations is expanding due to global warming, changing animal migration patterns, and land fragmentation.
