7/31/2023 0 Comments Corporate espionage statisticsMobile devices are particularly vulnerable. Businesses are most at risk when employees are abroad and are forced to connect to unfamiliar mobile and wireless networks. Given that corporate - or industrial - espionage is a tit-for-tat game, it’s safe to assert that the global cost of espionage is multiples higher.Īttackers bent on corporate espionage compromise business systems via the usual methods: hacking, wiretapping, and installing malware predominantly. ![]() The Center for Strategic and International Studies, however, asserts that the US loses $20-30 billion per year to Chinese cyber espionage alone. As a result, you may never determine how your nearest competitor manages to consistently quote just below you, or how they were first to market with a product you’d been furtively working on for years.Ĭalculating the cost of stolen IP is extremely tough. ![]() It is a crime whose efficacy hinges largely on the victim never learning of it. If your network is compromised through corporate espionage, however, you will likely never know about it. If your business is breached by bored black hats, the first you’ll know about it is when your database shows up on the darknet with a Pastebin linking to your “pwned” spools. 7/31/2023 0 Comments Excentro guillocheThis is, incidentally, exactly how engine turning and jeweling are done in the real world. Yes, the tools are a bit more expensive, but you’re still looking at a somewhat soft tool scraping a fine abrasive into a piece of metal. The trick to engine turning comes in getting a consistent pattern on the piece, something that could easily be done with a CNC machine. Posted in Tool Hacks Tagged aluminum, Engine turning, jeweling Post navigation If anyone out there feels like putting a pencil in the collet of a CNC router, we’d love to see the results. I don’t own a rose engine (aka guilloche lathe), but I have actually done real engine turning (guilloche) on an actual rose engine for an afternoon with the US expert David Lindow. He runs a wonderful newsletter you can sign up for that covers the real deal at his website. If you’re interested in this topic there is actually a society for this in the US, the Society of Ornamental Turners: īrittany Nicole Cox of Memoria Technica in Seattle does several classes a year with him teaching beginners real engine turning and it’s quite reasonably priced. Technically what this technique is called among horologists and ornamental turners is “spotting”, aka perlage. It can be done many ways but it’s pretty much the same- either an abrasive pad or wire cup wheel in a drill press milling machine or even hand drill. There are specialized machines within the watchmaking community that are quite rare designed to do this on watch movements and watch cases, and they use typically a wooden dowel turned to the diameter of the peralage spot you want to make, charged most often with diamontine ( diamond powder) of varying mesh sizes, usually around the equivalent of 300 grit I believe, or finer. ![]() The machines that are specifically designed to do this rely on the fact that the machine spindle is not perfectly perpendicular to the work surface by only fractions of degree. It’s actually easy to do this, spotting (perlage), but extremely challenging to do actual engine turning (guilloche).

Sadly I also had some troubles with the game, as I was using a wireless XBOX One controller, which made the game lag during game play and cutscenes, it didn't hinder the game play too much, but it was a pain in my bum for sure. I really loved the voice acting, story and the graphics weren't that bad either, considering that this was a 2016 remastered of an older game. Such a wonderful hack n slash game, with puzzles, bosses, witty lines and tale of vengeance!

7/31/2023 0 Comments Zebra scanner red lightWill it be possible to always have the scanned barcode look the same in the input field? Is there any way if I can set a rule saying that if the AWB number is longer than 23510027841 - Cut, remove or hide the last xxxxxxx digits?Īlso, if the above is possible, I would like to make sure that this is also possible.ĭepending how the barcode is made, sometimes the AWB barcode is like this:Ģ35100278410000001 and sometimes it is like this 235-100278410000001 So when I scan the barcode, this is what is inserted into the text field: 235100278410000001 The barcode may in many scenarios look like this: Maybe you know this, otherwise I will start searching this forum or google. It inserts the AWB number in the 'text' field. It actually works pretty good with the build-in scanner of the device. I finally managed to bring a device with me. Will it be the camera the opens up to scan the barcode? How would that work? How would we 'start' the scan of a barcode? What do you mean by 'Appsheet has a built-in scanner'? What I was hoping for, was that we could just click the psysical button, scan the barcode and bum, the number is in Appsheet. It is REALLY a time killer using Powerapps with the 'camera' to read the barcode. When we are very busy, we have several men going with a T26 right now to scan all cargo into the security app made with Powerapps for documentation of which method has been used to security check the cargo. No, it is not necessary 100% to use the particular sensor, all I know is that it is working super fast and yes, very reliable. I actually need kind of the same to happend with Appsheet? The moment we hit a barcode with the redlight, it takes this information into our Cargospot system. When we push the psysical button on the right side, the red light turns on until we release the button. If I do not misundertand, then no the build-in scanner is not using a camera app. That number just has to be inserted into a field in appsheet called AWB#: 235-10022875 The barcode will be an AWB number like: 235-10022875 Will appsheet be able to handle the scanned barcode and insert it into a field? We are handling crazy much cargo through security and need to verify each cargo we handle, so we dont have time to 'wait' for the camera to open, focus on the barcode and bla bla. Right now with the Power apps, we open the 'camera' on the T26 device, but it is super slow. One of the important things I would like to get working, is scanning with the build-in scanner.īefore I bring one of the T26 scanners with me home, I would like to ask if some of you already know if it is possible to scan barcodes with the build-in scanner into appsheet? I have a lot of apps to build, but this one here will be most important for me to handle. He is not interrested in updating the apps anymore, so I am starting to look deeper into this with Appsheet.

The last demotion was in 2017 when an unidentified fire department employee violated policies regarding city ethics, workplace violence and department’s rules and regulations. Public records dating back to 2010 list that a large majority of discipline within the fire department only resulted in suspension, dismissal or a temporary step reduction. It appears that demotion is not a common response to misconduct within SJFD. When the public asks, we need to answer.” “I know that if we had been able to share this information with the public immediately, it would have assured our residents that no matter your title, actions have consequences. “The former fire captain violated public trust - and I believe his demotion held him accountable,” Mahan said in a statement.

While the engine sat outside the strip club, a woman approached the firefighters, who initially refused to allow her in the truck for a ride-along but relented when “she persisted,” the two-page memo said. 5, fire crews for Engine 4 were dropping off an unauthorized male at his workplace, the Pink Poodle, according to an April 25 memo from Fire Chief Robert Sapien. It’s unclear exactly when the captain was demoted, but it appears to be the only documented disciplinary action taken after the video taken on South Bascom Avenue went viral on social media eight months ago, attracting widespread media attention. SAN JOSE - A city fire captain was demoted sometime after a bikini-clad woman was filmed exiting a city fire truck and entering the Pink Poodle strip club in October, the latest revelation in a city scandal that has prompted a Mercury News lawsuit against city officials for their slow release of information. 7/30/2023 0 Comments Parallax effect mobileThis statue was intended to be part of a series commemorating some of the key and most emotional moments in the series.
