This Week

This is a little late, but I wanted to let you know what is in the plans for this week.  There was a lot of news last week and I am going to continue talking about these stories.  Tomorrow I will be talking about the Equifax data breach and what you need to do.  It really isn't that hard, but it is serious.

Wednesday, I will talk about the release of IOS 11 which is actually being release tomorrow, but the Equifax data breach is serious.

Thursday, we will continue to talk about security and why it is important on your devices and computers.

Friday, we will drive it home with something fun.  How about some of the better websites out there.  These sites will allow you to take a breather from all the news and the serious issues facing the world!

I am looking forward to these stories and hope that you enjoy these articles.   There will be even more this weekend, but I think this is enough for now.  Please make sure you follow my page at scotth1354 to get the latest updates!

Good night,

Scott H

Finally, on Friday I will discuss my favorite cloud services are and why these are my favorites. Good night and see you tomorrow!!

Technology and Jobs

More people are becoming increasingly concerned about jobs.  As technology advances at the sonic speeds more entry-level jobs are going to be replaced.  This is a fact.  We can't slow it down if we want to see cheaper goods and services.  Companies also need to stay competitive.  Look at the recent deal between Microsoft and Walmart as both behemoths battle Amazon Another factor with this is growing wages.  As more states implement higher minimum wage laws companies are seeing more ROI on Kiosks and self-checkout registers.  Amazon has introduced a convenience store model that doesn't have cash registers at all.  You just download an app and you can go through the store and items get added or removed based on what you pick up. and put down.  More and more jobs are going to be automated.  Tesla is working on self driving tractor trailer trucks.   Amazing technology, but humans need to adapt.  Even in IT we...
