“Holacracy” by Brian Robertson – Book Summary

The Holacracy’s structure resembles how nature organizes systems like the human body, where cells function autonomously within organs, which in turn function autonomously within the body.

The main idea behind this new system is that today’s companies have to survive in an increasingly complex and dynamic environment that requires an equally dynamic organizational structure in order to properly address new challenges and opportunities. The solution germinated from the observation that humans have a unique ability to sense tension within an organization, which is defined as recognizing the gap of what currently exists, and what could be–the current reality… and the sensed potential.

How Does Tokenization Work – Introduction to Tokenization

Tokenization allows for data to be stored in a secure location, with several levels of authentication required for access, while a random token is used online as a placeholder. The token alone is useless should hackers or malware gain access to it. Tokenization was first introduced in 2005 and has been recommended since 2011 by the Payment Card Industry Security Standard Council. In this introduction, we provide some elements of comparison between encryption and tokenization and walk you through how tokenization works.

EOSIO is the Linux of Blockchain – It Will Produce Thousands of Copies

Linux is the best-known and most-used open source operating system. Linux is software that sits underneath all of the other software on a computer, receiving requests from those programs and relaying these requests to the computer’s hardware.

Linux is different from other operating systems in many important ways. First, and perhaps most importantly, Linux is open source software. The code used to create Linux is free and available to the public to view, edit, and contribute to. Linux is also different in that there are many distributions of Linux, which include a multitude of software options. This means that Linux is incredibly customizable.

EOSIO is also open source. It shares this most important trait with Linux.

Will EOSIO become the new Linux of Blockchain?

EOS USA is a block producer for many of the EOSIO chains such as Telos, EOS, BEOS, BOS, Instar, WAX and soon Lynx

Intro to Machine Learning (ML Zero to Hero, part 1)

Machine Learning represents a new paradigm in programming, where instead of programming explicit rules in a language such as Java or C++, you build a system which is trained on data to infer the rules itself. But what does ML actually look like? In part one of Machine Learning Zero to Hero, AI Advocate Laurence Moroney walks through a basic “Hello World” example of building an ML model, introducing ideas which we’ll apply in later episodes to a more interesting problem: computer vision.
