    Linked – We Just Got More Evidence Open Plan Offices Suck, According to Science

    ByMike McBride July 6, 2018 Reading Time: 1 minute

    These results surprised me, but the more I thought about it, the more it made sense. “Across both experiments, employees’ social interactions in person decreased by a crazy 70 percent, while emails saw an uptick by roughly 20 to 50 percent. So, instead of spending more time “collaborating” with co-workers in the sprawling new space…

    Linked – Tech-support scammers revive bug that sends Chrome users into a panic

    ByMike McBride July 5, 2018July 4, 2018 Reading Time: 1 minute

    Never, ever. “The most important thing to remember when encountering a browser window displaying a tech-support scam message is to not panic and to never call the phone numbers displayed. When all else fails, the browsers can almost always be unlocked by using the Windows Task Manager (control-alt-delete) or the macOS Force Quit feature (Apple…

    Want to Stand Out? Just Put in Some Effort

    ByMike McBride July 4, 2018July 25, 2018 Reading Time: 2 minutes

    I’m sure by now you’ve seen the photos, if not read the article about the Japanese team at the World Cup, and their fans. If you haven’t, the gist of it is this; even after a gut-wrenching defeat, the team thanked their fans, spoke to the media, cleaned their own locker room, and left a…

    Linked – I Never Said That! High-Tech Deception of ‘Deepfake’ Videos

    ByMike McBride July 2, 2018July 2, 2018 Reading Time: 1 minute

    I guess we just can’t believe anything anymore. “New technology on the internet lets anyone make videos of real people appearing to say things they’ve never said. Republicans and Democrats predict this high-tech way of putting words in someone’s mouth will become the latest weapon in disinformation wars against the United States and other Western…

    Linked – Facebook seeks patent on tech that turns on your smartphone microphone

    ByMike McBride June 29, 2018June 29, 2018 Reading Time: 2 minutes

    Doesn’t sound creepy at all, does it? “The application, first reported by Metro, was published on June 14 and lays out how Facebook might remotely turn on your phone’s mic to start recording. Essentially, Facebook would embed high-pitched audio signals in “broadcast content” (think TV ads) that would be inaudible to humans. But whereas our…

    Linked – What Legal Tech Is Doing to Legal Ethics

    ByMike McBride June 26, 2018June 25, 2018 Reading Time: 1 minute

    This is an interesting thought. “For attorneys that can’t keep up with what becomes generally accepted as standard practice for lawyer tech, like email, there could be an ethical issue with charging clients for tasks that take twice as long due to antiquated business practices.” I think this is something that we could very easily…
