Linux apps now can run in a Chromebook's Chrome OS environment. However, the process can be tricky, and it depends on your hardware's design and Google's whims. It is somewhat similar to running Android apps on your Chromebook, but the Linux connection is far less forgiving. If it works in your Chromebook's flavor, though, the computer becomes much more useful with more flexible options. [More...] |
The 4-Step Method for Developing Strong Product Content Many brick-and-mortar shops have been expanding their business to the online realm. It's no wonder why, considering global retail e-commerce sales are expected to reach $4.5 trillion by 2021. However, brands making the move first need to consider the differences between brick-and-mortar and e-commerce, and implement SMEA: set up, manage, enrich and audit. [More...] |
Oracle OpenWorld: Margin Lab Markets grow at the margins. This bit of sage advice was given to me at the start of my analyst career, and it has kept me in good nick for nearly two decades. Of course the focus has drifted over time but that's the point: The CRM market has evolved, and the job of an analyst is to make sense of the evolution. Oracle OpenWorld 2018 held in San Francisco this week is a laboratory for the margin. [More...] |
What Can We Expect From AI? Fear mongering about killer robots and the recent deaths connected with Uber and Tesla autonomous vehicles have rekindled concerns about AI in the machines around us. We are well beyond answering Alan Turing's question, "can machines think?" There is now good reason to ask how we should think of AI, and what we should expect from it. There have been phenomenal advances in just the past few years. [More...] |

Today's Story Highlights
Another Milestone Achieved: Run Linux Apps on a Chromebook
Linux apps now can run in a Chromebook's Chrome OS environment. However,
the process can be tricky, and it depends on your hardware's design and
Google's whims. It is somewhat similar to running Android apps on your
Chromebook, but the Linux connection is far less forgiving. If it works
in your Chromebook's flavor, though, the computer becomes much more
useful with more flexible options.

What Can We Expect From AI?
Fear mongering about killer robots and the recent deaths connected with
Uber and Tesla autonomous vehicles have rekindled concerns about AI in
the machines around us. We are well beyond answering Alan Turing's
question, "can machines think?" There is now good reason to ask how we
should think of AI, and what we should expect from it. There have been
phenomenal advances in just the past few years.

The CLOUD Act's Privacy Repercussions for Global Businesses
Just when the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation, or
GDPR, was about to go into effect, the United States Congress created
the CLOUD Act. Without any public hearings, review or public comment,
Congress passed the legislation as part of the $1.3 trillion government
spending bill. The CLOUD Act changed the privacy provisions that
previously were in effect.

Will Oracle Roil the DB Market?
When we write the history of the IT era, the big factor that has played
an important but not well recognized role will be hardware --
specifically, the Oracle Exadata appliance that puts databases into
memory. All of the cloud software starting with the autonomous database
on view this week at OpenWorld would be vastly different if the database
was still running primarily on disk drives.

The Rise of Activist Employees in the Tech Industry
Things have been changing at an almost unprecedented rate with regard to
power structures. The last time I saw this happen was in the 1970s, when
the EEOC took off. Suddenly a lot of the off-color, sexist and racist
jokes that many executives regularly told could get them fired. A
surprisingly large number of people got reassigned, fired, demoted, or
otherwise punished.

Mostly Hotly Sought-After Linux Skills
The Linux Foundation's 2018 Open Source Technology Jobs Report shows
rapid growth in the demand for open source technical talent, with Linux
skills a must-have requirement for entry-level positions. Linux coding
is the most sought-after open source skill. Linux-based container
technology is a close second. The report provides an overview of open
source career trends.
