Amsterdam-based startup Sympower has secured €21mn as it looks to scale its grid-balancing technology. Sympower partners with businesses that use a large amount of electricity. It gains access to some of their energy assets and can turn them on and off when the grid requires balancing — a process called demand response. Sympower’s software platform uses AI to analyse data and optimise when and how much power businesses can sell at any given time, making energy use adjustments more effective and profitable for all parties.  Grid operators pay Sympower to stabilise the energy supply. The company passes most of that…

Lawrence's interpretation, however narrow and flawed, does highlight an indisputable element of Grazzini's tale of Dr. Manente: its cruelty and "monstrosity," traits that, I will argue, provide insight into the social structures of the mid-sixteenth century, particularly those that rely upon coersion and force. In Florence, how did one family--the Medici--secure their power after over a century of struggle, and how did they come to construct a myth of their own legitimacy? ... It is important to remember that, from 1494--when the friar himself gained widespread support and offered a major threat to the rule of the Medici family--until long after his execution in 1498, Savonarola bequeathed a powerful religious and political vision that was not dependent on his leadership for survival--a fact that fascinated the political theorist Niccolo Machiavelli. Savonarola's followers--called the Piagnoni first by their enemies and later, proudly, by themselves--remained politically active after his execution, through the Republic that lasted until 1513, when the first Medici pope, Leo X, used the considerable influence of this position to help his family and their allies to return to Florence, and again after the sack of Rome in 1527, which occurred during the pontificate of another Medici, Clement VII. The Piagnoni continued to be active even after the Medici, first Alessandro and then Cosimo I, openly turned Florence onto the path of absolutism [unlimited, centralized authority and absolute sovereignty] by accepting the [nobility] title of Duke. ... Lorenzo's manipulation of the Church comes into play in the next phase of the beffa. ... At this point, Grazzini emphasizes not only that many friars and priests were ignorant, but, more importantly, that the kind of people Lorenzo elevated to positions of power in the Florentine church hierarchy were either superstitious [occult] or corrupt, criticisms that Savonarola also often made of the Medici.

Cell phones are ubiquitous, and tend to be important if not necessary to own. Yet sometimes the cost of owning and using a mobile phone can get out of hand. And the prevalence of daunting cell phone bills only grows as more and more apps and functions that use data come into popular use.

The high cost of mobile data is a familiar problem for many; too many of us have run up against exorbitant bills after underestimating just how much data we have been using. And, for those with restricted monthly data allowances, exhausting the monthly supply of data can be irritating or even crippling for those who often depend on data.

Hey there, fellow fitness enthusiasts! It's Marc, and today we're diving deep into the world of tendinitis. If you've ever felt that nagging pain in your tendons, you know it's no joke. But fear not, I've got your back! Let's break it down:

What is Tendinitis?

• It's the inflammation of the tendon, often caused by overuse, injuries, or even your favorite sports like tennis or golf. I've personally battled with it multiple times, and trust me, it's a real pain (pun intended).

My Personal Tendinitis Journey:

• I've had my fair share of flare-ups, especially in my left arm and shoulder. From snowboarding mishaps to intense workouts, tendinitis has been an unwelcome guest. But guess what? I've found ways to combat it and I'm here to share them with you!

Marc's Six-Step Tendinitis Recovery Plan:

1. Cease and Desist: Identify the culprit exercise and take a break from it.
2. Ice, Ice Baby: Apply ice to the affected area for short durations. It's a game-changer!
3. Heat Creams: I'm a fan of AST BioFreeze, but Tiger Balm works wonders too.
4. Support: Invest in braces or supports to immobilize the area.
5. Ultrasound: A little device that can make a big difference.
6. Deep Tissue Massage: It might hurt a bit, but the relief is unparalleled.

The Pro Athlete Mindset:

• Ever wondered how professional athletes bounce back from injuries so quickly? It's not just about the money or the drugs. It's about the mindset, the resources, and the determination to heal and recover.

Final Thoughts:

• Tendinitis might slow you down, but with the right approach, you can bounce back stronger than ever. Remember, it's not about avoiding the pain but finding ways to heal and grow from it.

Article warning: If you are paranoid about everything, you should avoid reading this article or it may ruin the Internet for you.

I started converting the Behold Forum over to bbPress. The first thing I had to do was convert all the registered users. To my horror, I discovered that my old Forum stored the passwords as plain text.

That actually was terrible for three reasons. First, if I was a dishonest guy, I could take your password, assume you used the same one at other sites you use, and login as you and do malicious things. Second, since I'm honest and don't even want to know what your password is, if there was someone working for me who had access to the database, they might be dishonest and use your password. Third, since I don't have anyone working for me, if there was a hacker out there who could get into my database, they could use your password.

So I'm not talking here about the "quality" of your password. It doesn't matter if you use a simple 3 letter password, or a complex 29 character password with lower and uppercase and numbers and special characters. If someone can find it out, it doesn't matter how well crafted it is.

WordPress and bbPress are different. They do not store the password in the database. Instead they "hash" the password using the MD5 algorithm and store that hashed value. This is not encryption which makes the password retrievable again. This is a hash which hides the password from everyone, including the owners of the database.

Now I know there have been vulnerabilities found to MD5 and WordPress and others are working to block them, but even so, hashing the password is infinitely safer than leaving it in plain text for the three reasons above.

So that got me wondering. I have about a dozen different passwords at several hundred different sites I use. I wonder how many of them are not hashed but are insecure in plain text in the databases.

In most cases, there actually is an easy way of finding out. Go to a site you've registered with and click on the "lost my password" link. If they email you back your actual password, then they are storing it in text or in some accessible way. If they instead send you a message with a new random password and say your password is reset, then they probably don't have access to it, and all they can do is give you a new one.

Unfortunately, you can't find this out until you've already registered for the site. For people paranoid about this, I guess the trick would be to use a dummy e-mail address and dummy password and register with that, do a lost password request and see what they send back. Then you can decide whether to trust them and register for real.

Credit card information could have the same problem. You can't do the same thing here, since I've never seen a "lost my credit card information" link on a site. You can follow the policy of only giving your credit card to companies you totally trust. That's why PayPal is so popular. You can buy from thousands of companies, but PayPal will be the only one with your number. But do you trust PayPal? I'd trust them more than the various kids working at the corner gas station who get my card number all the time. This is not really a worry though, because credit cards have lots of levels of security and are actually very safe. The credit card companies will protect you from credit card fraud.

But giving out passwords you use can be much worse. What if your userid and password were the same for your PayPal account? That could be very bad.

For those of you who signed up to my Behold Forum, I apologise. I didn't know about this before. I'm transferring your account and an MD5 hash of your current password to the new bbPress forum I am creating, and they'll now be safe.

February 10, 2006 – Yesterday, the Transportation Security Administration suspended work on Secure Flight; the agencies long awaited and very expensive airline passenger screening system. Development work on the system has been plagued with trouble for the past four years. And the system has faced stiff opposition from consumers concerned about privacy. But if Secure Flight has proven anything, it’s been that it has more lives than most cats. So is this the end of the program? Unfortunately the answer is, “Probably not.”
