Chapitre 2 — Innover = créer des opportunités Comment poser la question de l'innovation ? Il y a une question à laquelle, après tous ces voyages, j'ai du mal à répondre de façon claire et définitive : pourquoi les gens se mettent-ils à innover ? Pourquoi cela arrive partout dans le monde ? Je constate par contre qu'ils le font et pas nécessairement comme on croirait. Sec, légèrement barbu, Adnane Charafeddine a le regard intense de celui qui a une vision. "Nous copions bêtement et méchamment ce qui se fait ailleurs" explique-t-il -- en l'occurrence quelques magazines automobiles et autres sites spécialisés. Après quinze ans passés dans la région de San Francisco, j'avais acquis, à tort, l'habitude de la concevoir comme ce qui n'existait pas avant. Le grand Steve Jobs lui-même n'a-t-il pas trouvé souris et interface graphique dans les laboratoires de Xerox Parc ? Carla Gómez Monroy/photo F. Copier puis modifier et modifier en assemblant ne sont peut-être pas des entreprises si différentes…. [Écrit le 8 octobre 2011]
Why Privacy Matters Even if You Have 'Nothing to Hide' - The Chronicle Review By Daniel J. Solove When the government gathers or analyzes personal information, many people say they're not worried. "I've got nothing to hide," they declare. "Only if you're doing something wrong should you worry, and then you don't deserve to keep it private." The nothing-to-hide argument pervades discussions about privacy. The nothing-to-hide argument is everywhere. The argument is not of recent vintage. I encountered the nothing-to-hide argument so frequently in news interviews, discussions, and the like that I decided to probe the issue. My response is "So do you have curtains?" On the surface, it seems easy to dismiss the nothing-to-hide argument. One can usually think of something that even the most open person would want to hide. But such responses attack the nothing-to-hide argument only in its most extreme form, which isn't particularly strong. To evaluate the nothing-to-hide argument, we should begin by looking at how its adherents understand privacy. Daniel J.
Pool Party, UrbanDaddy quelques bribes d'idées-concept M-Pesa M-Pesa (M for mobile, pesa is Swahili for money) is a mobile-phone based money transfer and microfinancing service for Safaricom and Vodacom, the largest mobile network operators in Kenya and Tanzania.[1] Currently the most developed mobile payment system in the world, M-Pesa allows users with a national ID card or passport to deposit, withdraw, and transfer money easily with a mobile device.[2] History[edit] The initial work of developing the product was given to a product and technology development company[9] known as Sagentia. Development and second line support responsibilities were transferred to IBM in September 2009, to where most of the original Sagentia team transferred.

NSA "Whistleblower" Snowden: Hero? Fool? Traitor? Or ... ? Oops. I'd thought there was a good probability I could get through today without having to post again about the ever more confusing NSA mess. Not a chance, as it turns out. This saga is now taking on the various aspects of a 60s-era spy spoof film, and its bizarre twists and turns are making David Lynch's 1984 production of "Dune" look clear and easily comprehensible by comparison. Here's where we stand. Word is out that the NSA leaker, "whistleblower," or whatever your preferred terminology may be, is Edward Snowden, a 29-year-old former CIA tech assistant who (until very recently) was a contract worker at NSA on behalf of various outside firms, like Dell and Booz Allen. Snowden is now reportedly holed up in a hotel room in Hong Kong, and states that he hopes to achieve asylum in Iceland. He asserts that he has done "nothing wrong." Snowden is already being hailed as a "hero" in many quarters, and comparisons are being made to U.S. I'll admit to being puzzled by such actions. Be seeing you.

curiosité d'idées "L'Innovation jugaad. Redevenons ingénieux!" (Editions Diateino) LE MONDE ECONOMIE | • Mis à jour le | Annie Kahn Depuis quelques années, le savoir-faire et la créativité des chercheurs indiens, éduqués dans un contexte de frugalité et non d'abondance à l'occidentale, inspirent les chercheurs des pays développés. Navi Radjou, français d'origine indienne, consultant en innovation actuellement installé dans la Silicon Valley, a beaucoup fait pour populariser cet état d'esprit dont la dénomination, "jugaad", vient d'un mot hindi signifiant "savoir se débrouiller et trouver des solutions dans des conditions hostiles". En français, l'innovation "jugaad" est traduite par "innovation frugale", celle dont l'objectif est de trouver des solutions radicalement nouvelles, mais économes en matières premières, en énergie. Le livre que Navi Radjou cosigne avec Jaideep Prabhu, professeur à la Judge Business School de l'université de Cambridge (Royaume-Uni) - où M. Son marché est celui du "milieu supérieur de la pyramide", précisent les auteurs. L'Innovation jugaad.
Compagnies aériennes: jusqu'où iront Ryanair et les autres rois du low cost pour réduire les coûts? Face à la concurrence qui fait rage, Ryanair et les autres compagnies aériennes sont prêtes à tout pour faire des économies. Parfois, les mesures prises ressortissent à la plus pure radinerie, même si, au final, elles se traduisent par des millions de dollars d'économies chaque année. Mais parfois, elles peuvent aller à l'encontre de l'exigence de sécuriité. Revue de détail. Le champion du monde des réductions de dépenses tous azimuts est Michael O'Leary, le patron de Ryanair, qui ne ménage pas son temps pour produire des idées lui permettant d'économiser et... accessoirement de faire parler de lui. A l'occasion d'une interview accordée au Républicain lorrain, il avait ainsi carrément annoncé qu'il souhaitait supprimer des toilettes dans ses avions : "N’en garder qu’un sur quatre suffit largement, nos trajets étant en moyenne d’un peu plus d’une heure. Et cet Irlandais qui dirige Ryanair depuis près de 20 ans a de la suite dans les idées.
Run That Town The Australian Bureau of Statistics was looking for ways to get people more engaged with Census data to help them understand why the data matters and how it can help guide planning and policy decisions. But most people don’t get a chance to make those kind of decisions. To them, the Census data can just seem like so many numbers. We took the data from every postal area in Australia and turned it into a mobile game. Solution politique Innovation Jugaad.

What is the NSA's PRISM program? (FAQ) | Security & Privacy Editors' note: Updated on June 12 to include new information. You've been hearing about a top-secret government program reportedly giving the NSA access to digital consumer information held by large tech companies. But what is it, really, and how does it affect you? Reports are changing fast, so we created this FAQ to let you know what is known so far. We will continue to update it as the facts become clear. What is PRISM? It has now been acknowledged by the Obama administration. In the words of national security reporter Marc Ambinder, "PRISM [is] a kick-ass GUI that allows an analyst to look at, collate, monitor, and cross-check different data types provided to the NSA from Internet companies located inside the United States." It only targets foreigners? Why would there be foreign intelligence on American servers? So how does this affect an American's data? What is PRISM not? Which companies are involved? How? Why isn't Twitter a part of PRISM? What type of data is monitored?
