Although self-continuity tends to increase steadily and moderately with age, according to Joshua Rutt, Ph.D., that doesn’t mean you have to wait until you’re 90 years old to connect with the future your. Here are five easy ways to get closer now. 1. Write your future self a letter. This forces you to really consider him in a thoughtful, directed way," Hershfield says. He coauthored a recent study finding that college students who wrote letters to themselves 20 years in the future were more likely to exercise in the next ten days than those who wrote letters to themselves just three months forward. Though the study only tracked exercise, focusing on your future can trigger a host of small behavioral changes that can affect you positively over time. And it's pretty simple. "Think about who you will be 20 years from now, and write about the person you are now, which topics are important and dear to you, and how you see your life," Hershfield says. 2. P...

Li-Fi  (Light Fidelity) , a ground-breaking light-based communication technology, which makes use of light waves instead of radio technology to deliver data . With the invention of  new Li-fi technology , you will soon find light bulbs of your car, light lamps in your room, lights in subway, flashlight of your mobile and any other light source are providing you  internet access  at very  high speed . It is so far measured to be about  100 times faster  than some Wi-Fi implementations, reaching speeds of 224 gigabits per second ! (Quite Amazing , Right ?) So what exactly is Li-Fi and how does it work ? Li-Fi is the use of the visible light portion of the electromagnetic spectrum to transmit information at very high speeds. This is in contrast to established forms of wireless communication such as Wi-Fi which use traditional radio frequency (RF) signals to transmit data. Li-Fi is a Visible Light Communications (VLC) system for data tran...

So here are 36 inventions that you have most certainly never suspected that they already exist and figure out how you’ve made it through life in their absence! 1. The Foam Chair  – buying beanbags has always been a tricky task due to their shape loss. Take the shape loss off your shoulders because this foam chair returns to its original shape! 2. The Toy – Eating Monster  – the eternal toy mess finally ends with this funny device. Your kids will definitely fall into the ‘pick what you throw trap’ of this case. 3. The Height Adjustable Chair  – remember those moments when the chair was too low and you couldn’t reach the table? This chair provided with ‘pages’ allows you height adjustments for your lesser tall acquaintances. 4. The Anti-Spill Cup  – tired of the round coffee spots that are all over your documents? A simple cavity on the outside of this cup turns spilled coffee into pure history. 5. The Toy-Toothbrush for dogs  – tooth b...

In my opinion, the most dangerous cyber security threats are two fatal chips flaws labelled Meltdown and Spectre, which are results of bad decisions taken fifteen years ago, when engineers prioritized performance over security. In January 2018, researchers released papers illustrating the Meltdown [1]  and Spectre [2]  vulnerabilities. Meltdown is a vulnerability affecting Intel and a few ARM devices.  It allows user mode processes to infer the contents of kernel memory by creating cache loads in locations based on the illegally referenced contents of the kernel memory, thereby leaking the contents themselves.  Spectre is not manufacturer specific,and nearly all modern processors have the flaw.  It uses conditional logic to train the system to incorrectly anticipate application behavior. This tricks the system into breaking process isolation, temporarily executing instructions that create observable effects, constituting a side channel. Meltd...
