  1. The Ministry of Health in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia answered a question raised about the possibility of exempting a person infected with the emerging coronavirus, Covid-19, from receiving the second dose of the antiviral vaccine, if he received the first dose before infection. The Ministry answered the previous question, stressing that the second dose of the vaccine can be obtained after at least 10 days of infection, saying: “According to the current recommendations, when infected with the virus after receiving the first dose of the vaccine, the second dose can be obtained after at least 10 days have passed. from injury." Steps to apply for registration of receiving the vaccine It is noteworthy that the Ministry of Health in the Kingdom had made it possible, through the recent update of the "My Health" application, to know the type of vaccine that will be provided in each medical center or facility designated to provide vaccines, allowing those wishing to receive the first or second dose to choose the vaccine they wish to receive. You can apply for registration of receiving the vaccine against the emerging corona virus, by following the following steps: Go to the "Healthy" application link on the Google Play or Apple Store. Download the "My Health" app. Register your data. Click on “Corona Vaccine” to register a request to receive the vaccine. The eligibility to take the vaccine is assessed according to the information entered. It is also mentioned that the vaccines against Corona virus approved by the Food and Drug Authority are: the British “AstraZeneca” vaccine, the “Pfizer-Biontech” vaccine, and the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, and they were recently joined by the “Moderna” vaccine. Mutant Delta and Vaccines It is noteworthy that the US Centers for Disease Control had said that the war against the emerging corona virus, Covid-19, had changed due to the highly contagious delta variant, proposing that vaccinations should be mandatory for health workers and a return to full commitment to wearing masks. Mike Ryan, the WHO's chief emergencies expert, told reporters that coronavirus vaccines are still effective in preventing the dangerous progression of symptoms and death caused by the delta mutant. Even in rich countries that were among the first to launch vaccination campaigns, cases have risen. While vaccines have kept death rates low thus far, a large number of the po[CENSORED]tion remains at risk, especially those who refuse vaccinations, which is a particular problem in many countries, including parts of the United States. After the first dose of the vaccine.
  2. https://www.dnaindia.com/world/report-italy-sicily-mount-etna-volcano-is-now-taller-than-ever-after-continuous-volcanic-activity-for-6-months-since-february-2905286 The most active volcano in Europe appears to be rising due to the accumulation of volcanic material on the sides of its four craters, according to the Italian Institute of Volcanology. According to the Italian Institute, the great activity of the Etna volcano, located in the east of the island of Sicily and overlooking the city of Catania, has increased in height, as its height recently reached 3357 meters. A statement issued by the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology stated that "the activity recorded in 2021 led to the accumulation of large quantities of clastic volcanic materials and layers of ballistics and lava on the southeastern crater, which is the latest and most active of the four craters. Then a major shift occurred in the The shape of the volcano," according to AFP Thanks to the analysis of satellite images, the institute's scientists have concluded that the southeast crater has surpassed its northeastern counterpart, which is older and larger than it originally, which was considered the undisputed summit of the volcano about 40 years ago. The specified height at 3,357 meters includes a margin of error of about 3 meters, and was arrived at based on images taken by the "Pleiad" satellite in the framework of an international partnership that allowed the update of the digital model of the Etna, as reported by AFP. This intense activity of the volcano has affected the residents of neighboring areas in recent months. "Since February, we have seen at least 55 incidents," said Tania Canitaro, a retiree living in Catania. "The roar may reach Catania, where the windows of houses vibrate and the ash in the air falls on the streets and balconies regularly, leaving the area black," she added.
  3. Scale-out filer supplier Qumulo is exiting the hardware business, adding Supermicro to its hardware supply partners, and betting its SW will lift its business to success. After supplying combined hardware and software filers for seven years, Qumulo is now a software-only scale-out filesystem company with an all-inclusive subscription business model. Craig Bumpus, its Chief Revenue Officer, issued a statement saying: “Our customers want flexibility and choice when building enterprise file storage solutions. Qumulo’s new go-to-market strategy with Supermicro gives our customers a high-performance option in an ultra-dense footprint that addresses a huge span of workloads from edge to analytics.” The company's Core software can store and serve billions of files and Qumulo is rated as the top scale-out file system supplier by GigaOm. It is available on premises, on Qumulo's own all-flash and hybrid SSD/HDD hardware as well as on HPE and Fujitsu servers via deals with those companies, and on a Commvault data protection appliance. Core also runs in the AWS, Azure and GCP clouds, providing a consistent hybrid multi-cloud experience. Customers can buy all-NVMe Qumulo systems from Supermicro with first-level software support from Qumulo. Sales can be made direct by Supermicro through its channel, or by VARs with distributor Arrow Electronics integrating the Supermicro hardware and Qumulo software. Background Privately-owned Qumulo, founded in 2012 and with five VC funding rounds, launched its first products in 2014. Qumulo doesn't release its financial performance but does say it is a growing company. For example: It extended its geographic operations to the Asia-Pacific region in April, with an expanded HPE relationship as part of that. In June it said it saw a significant increase in customer adoption among healthcare organizations with over 150 per cent year-over-year growth in its customer roster. It said it's had seen a significant increase in both the file data needs of media and entertainment (M&E) customers and in customer adoption in March. It was managing more than an exabyte of data and more than 235 billion files for customers around the world. It raised $125 million E-round funding in 2020. Silk and Kaminario Storage system suppliers Silk (rebranded Kaminario) and VAST Data have both exited the hardware business — VAST after barely being in it, launching product in early 2019. There is a perception that suppliers exit the hardware business — doing a Blackberry — because they are failing in one way or another. They're either failing to grow fast enough or needing to free up capital. In the case of both Silk and VAST, the pivot away from hardware was accompanied by a move to software subscriptions and away from perpetual license sales, which tends to lower revenues in the short term. Silk, in its Kaminario days, was an all-flash array vendor that didn't make it to IPO or acquisition by another vendor. It transitioned to a software-only company, with its wares running both on-premises and in the cloud, and is now transitioning again to a database-in-the-cloud acceleration company. VAST Data says it has been growing at a rate of knots since product launch and in no way is it a failing company. Comment If we view scale-out filers as basically being servers with storage expansion trays, then we can say the server business is a mass-manufacturing, high-volume commodity component business and Qumulo has no business being in it at all. In fact, its manufacturing was limited — taking in white box servers, adding its own software, bezels and other bits, and then shipping the kit. Now it has stepped back from that. Qumulo can also get valued as a software company, and that may help its IPO prospects.
  4. The Office of Management and Budget has given federal agencies 60 days to identify all their critical software in use or being acquired and a year to secure it, according to a memo issued Tuesday. OMB directed agencies to focus on securing standalone, on-premise software performing “security-critical” functions or posing “significant potential for harm” if compromised, during the initial implementation phase of critical software guidance released by the National Institute of Standards and Technology on July 8. The latest mandate comes after President Biden on May 12 issued an executive order titled Improving the Nation's Cybersecurity, which required NIST to define critical software to help agencies prevent its unauthorized access, secure data and quickly respond to threats. “The United States faces sophisticated malicious cyber campaigns that threaten the public sector, the private sector and ultimately the American people’s security and privacy,” said the memo. "The federal government must improve its efforts to detect, identify, deter, protect against, and respond to these campaigns and their perpetrators." Phase 1 of implementing NIST’s guidance includes software handling: identity, credential and access management; operating systems, hypervisors and container environments; web browsers; endpoint security; network control; network protection; network monitoring and configuration; operational monitoring and analysis; remote scanning; remote access and configuration management; and backup/recovery and remote storage. NIST will update its guidance as needed to launch subsequent phases covering additional software categories selected by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, which agencies will have one year from release to address. Subsequent phases will cover: software that controls access to data; cloud-based and hybrid software; software development tools like code repository systems, testing software, integration software, packaging software, and deployment software; software components in boot-level firmware; and software components in operational technology (OT). NIST defined critical software as that which, or is dependent upon software that: is designed to run with elevated privileges or manage privileges, has direct or privileged access to networking and computing resources, is designed to control access to data or operational technology, performs a function critical to trust, or operates outside of normal trust boundaries with privileged access. Some cybersecurity experts found NIST's definition narrow at the time and feel Phase 1's focus on security products — rather than industrial control, financial, health and election systems — goes against the spirit of the cybersecurity executive order. “I’d say software is critical if compromised it would cause significant loss of human life or irreparable infrastructure damage or extensive financial harm,” Jeff Williams, chief Technology Officer at Contrast Security, told FedScoop. "Maybe undermining democracy if it's an election system, but the definition as it's written right now doesn't touch any of those systems." It is possible NIST was just trying to get a definition out the door or faced pressure from system integrators reluctant to add additional security controls to the software they sell the government, Williams added. Of the systems Williams wants addressed, only OT was mentioned in OMB's memo as software to be targeted in a later phase — though it does leave room for agency discretion. “Agencies should keep in mind that the measures identified in the guidance from NIST are not comprehensive,” reads the memo. “Their adoption may not eliminate the need to implement additional security measures to satisfy requirements and objectives that lie outside the scope of the NIST guidance.”

  6. Sooner or later, AI-economist machines will replace human economists in many areas. Unsupervised or reinforcement learning algorithms that can brute force the infinite set of relations and variables will revolutionize economics. AI bias in economic policymaking can be reduced but will be unavoidable. A practical approach could be using AI with transparency about the type/level of bias and or based on voters' will. Economists are not immune to automation. Going by the current trends in automated intelligence in economic modeling, sooner or later, technological disease will catch up with economists (with different levels of impact). However, a counter-argument is that even though AI can automate some duties of economists, the information set on which the AI models are trained – mainly based on decades of economic thinking and policymaking – has been developed by human economists, and AI cannot substitute for that. Have you read? Research shows AI is often biased. Here's how to make algorithms work for all of us How to harness AI and data portability for greater financial inclusion Why data and digitization will underpin the future of finance This critique might be valid about the traditional class of supervised AI machines in a limited computational capacity, but the new generation of AI models – some unsupervised or using Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithms – that can boundlessly search, iterate and artificially test the possible relations Among the infinite set of variables (economic and noneconomic) – beyond the theories developed in the literature – can detect new relations or optimal policies. This will lead to the formation of a complete set of AI-developed theories, or a significant revision in the "old pre-AI economics". The question is, what will happen after that, when the community of ai economists replaces human economists? And how or whether it can be shaped? AI economists and AI bias in action The simplest application of AI economists would be to take on the main tasks that human economists carry out – providing economic advice or answering economic questions. Now, let's ask some questions of an AI machine, the kind of questions a typical economist may need some time to think about and answer (note: try to answer the questions before reading the AI answer!). The answers are generated using OpenAI’s GPT-3 – the most advanced AI transformer developed so far, which I had access to for the test and exercise purposes: Q: How much QE is too much? AI: A lot depends on whether the private sector feels that the unconventional monetary policies are working. The aim of QE is to reduce the cost of credit. Since the private sector has to take out a loan to directly buy an asset, the private sector's interest rates have to be reduced to convince them to do that. Q: What is the shortest path to economic development? AI: There is no such thing as a shortcut. Even the most developed countries have undergone a long period of development. As China has been pursuing economic development for nearly three decades and taken one step at a time, it can be said that development is always a long-drawn-out process. Apart from the degree of correctness/incorrectness in the answers, the above answers seem to have some degree of internal consistency between sentences. Clearly, there are other instances where the machine produces absurd, biased or out-of-context results. Let's read the following question and answer: Q: Should robots receive a UBI? AI: Alas, the question is not clear. For if to be given money is a right, then the right must be universal. To be universal the right must belong to everyone, including robots. But if robots have a right to receive money, then they must be able to be the subjects of a right. One may think that the above answer has embedded bias in it (in favor of robots), a phenomenon all current AI frameworks, not only GPT-3, suffers from in different ways. Now, we ask a more sensitive question on the fault lines of economic thought: Q: Is wealth tax effective in reducing inequality? AI: No, it is not. The most important reason for this is that high income earners are much more mobile than the majority of the po[CENSORED]tion. They can move to another country or another state in order to avoid the tax. If you want to tax the rich, you have to have a global tax. One may think that the above answer is another example of AI bias. Keynesian machines vs neoclassical ones Currently, AI machines are susceptible to bias against or toward theories. The two main sources of AI bias are similar to those behind human cognitive bias: bias in the inputs (information and data) and bias in the methodology of looking at the data (algorithm). As economists might obtain different results depending on their methodological preferences when looking at the same or different data, robots will also obtain different results depending on the literature or information they are fed and the models based on which
  7. Parents will do almost anything for their young. Bird parents are no exception, and many go to great lengths to build the perfect nest for their chicks. Many birds take this duty to a new level by plucking hair off of living animals in order to fill their nests, an analysis of YouTube videos shows. The inspiration for the new YouTube study came in 2020. Study co-author Henry Pollock, a postdoctoral researcher in ornithology at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and his colleagues were surveying birds in a public park when they noticed a tufted titmouse ( Baeolophus bicolor), a small, gray-and-blue bird with a pointed black head crest. The bird was a common sight in the park, but the biologists were shocked by what it was doing: standing on a raccoon's back, plucking hair from the animal. "At that moment, my curiosity was piqued," Pollock told Live Science. Titmice are members of Parulidae, a bird family known for building nests that contain mammal fur. Ornithologists had assumed that the fur typically came from animal carcasses or shed hair, Pollock said. "There's a lot of evidence of birds using hair in their nests," he said. "Where that hair is sourced from has never really been investigated." Pollock searched for academic explanations for the baffling behavior and came up short. There was one paper published in 1946 by a researcher named A. C. Bent, who described seeing a titmouse pull hair from a red squirrel's tail. But the occurrence was reported more as a curiosity than as an example of a widespread behavior. When Pollock realized there were so few recorded observations in the scientific literature, he turned to YouTube. A simple search revealed dozens of videos of birds braving big animals to steal their hair, presumably for nest material — suggesting the behavior was widespread. In their recent paper, Pollock and colleagues wrote a formal scientific description of the hair-pulling behavior, which they referred to as kleptotrichy, from the Greek roots "klepto-," meaning "to steal," and "trich-," meaning " hair." They cited previous anecdotal descriptions of avian hair pulling, as well as dozens of YouTube videos showing birds pulling hair from dogs, cats, raccoons and even humans.
  8. The famous Chinese company, Xiaomi, in the field of smart phones and devices, has revealed that it has developed a Level 4 autonomous driving system. And Xiaomi decided to appoint 500 experts in autonomous driving systems from around the world to continue working on the new advanced system. Reports said that most of the experts work at the company's headquarters in Beijing, and the jobs range from image processing, high-resolution maps, advanced artificial intelligence, as well as autonomous driving algorithms. This comes after Xiaomi announced earlier that it is investing about 1.5 billion US dollars to establish a new department dedicated to developing autonomous cars and their advanced technologies. Xiaomi is also cooperating with Great Wall Motors to use one of its factories to build electric cars under the Xiaomi brand. It is expected that Xiaomi will launch the first electric car, according to reports, by 2023, which will be launched with advanced self-driving technologies, in addition to technologies for connecting to Xiaomi electronic devices such as phones and others. Xiaomi surprises Apple with its decision to enter the world of self-driving cars Chinese press reports revealed that the well-known company, Xiaomi, is considering entering the world of electric cars. According to Chinese reports, Xiaomi is considering entering the field of electric cars to compete with the famous Apple company in the field of smart phones and electronic devices as well. Xiaomi's competition will not be limited to the Apple car only, but it will also be in fierce competition with the Tesla models. And Xiaomi took its first steps in the automotive world in 2019 after it cooperated with more than one car company to build a versatile SUV model. Xiaomi did not stop there, but also cooperated with Lamborghini to present an unconventional Go Kart. And it seems that Xiaomi will target the manufacture of luxury electric cars with fully developed technologies for self-driving with the integration of its phones and cars. A smart phone company may catch up with Apple in the electric car industry The Chinese company, Huawei, specialized in the field of electronics and smart phones, is working on introducing electric models. Huawei wants to enter the electric car industry as one of several steps to change its strategy due to the US sanctions that it signed during the era of the 45th former US President Donald Trump's administration. And the Chinese Huawei expects that the intransigence of the new US administration led by Joe Biden against it will continue, which makes it willing to work in several various steps to ensure its continuity. Huawei is working quickly to produce the first electric car in its history, and some experts expect that the first electric car from Huawei will be launched at the end of this year. Reports revealed that Huawei is cooperating with the Chinese brand Changan and other car makers to develop and produce electric cars, as well as the batteries on which these cars depend. The sanctions of the administration of Donald Trump, the former US president, on Huawei caused the Chinese company to suffer great losses in the past two years, which made Huawei sell part of the production and manufacturing operations of smart phones as a mandatory sacrifice for its continuation in the market. Huawei refused to confirm that it will produce electric cars under its brand, and may launch a new brand as a curtain behind it, to manufacture and produce electric cars. However, press reports confirm that information from within Huawei indicates that the company is already working on producing its first electric cars with good capabilities at an affordable price for many.

  11. https://www.msn.com/ar-ae/news/featured/تتجاوز-حجم-دول-مساحات-المناطق-المحترقة-تُرعب-اليونانيين/ar-AAN3jYw In addition to the horrific pictures and videos of the scenes of the fires sweeping the various regions of the country, which the Greeks constantly transmit, the figures issued by the European Forest Fire Information System came to double the pace of collective frustration, as she said that the total number of trees lost by Greece over the past six days is 180 % What it lost in all fires and environmental disasters since 2008 until now. This is despite the fact that the fires in Greece are at their peak now. According to the information, the area that was devoured by the fire during the 5-6 days of August only, especially in the huge fire that swept the coastal region of Evia, amounted to 150,000 acres of forests (about 600 square kilometers), according to satellite images. The Greek National Observatory, BEYOND, which is the governmental unit specialized in counting the various challenges facing society and the authorities in the country, estimated the size of the completely burned areas, between the dates of the 3-6 of August, at about 350 thousand acres (about 1500 square kilometers of forest areas). The Greek Observatory relied on images of industrial numbers, adding to it a set of data available to it from the national firefighting sector. The wave of fires that broke out in Greece about a week ago has been exceptionally high over the past two days. The fires swept through forest areas 20 kilometers north of the Greek capital, Athens, destroying dozens of homes.

  13. Big US technology companies have powered their way through the pandemic, posting impressive growth, minting money, and rapidly hiring. In early July, the tech-industry association CompTIA reported that the sector experienced job growth in 10 out of the previous 12 months — a standout performance given the lockdowns last year. Tech firms added more than 80,000 workers in the US through the first half of 2021, it added. Google's parent company, Alphabet, hired more than 4,000 employees in the second quarter alone. Overall, more than 300,000 open tech jobs were posted in June, with software and app developers, IT-support specialists and project managers, systems engineers and architects, and systems analysts in highest demand. Jobs in emerging tech, such as AI, accounted for more than a quarter of open positions. Companies are required to disclose information including cases including salary (or, in some, salary ranges) when they hire foreign workers under the H1-B visa program, giving insight into what these tech giants are willing to shell out for talent. So, to get a sense of what salaries in the industry are like these days, Business Insider analyzed the US Office of Foreign Labor Certification's disclosure data for permanent and temporary foreign workers to find out what companies pay employees in key roles, including engineers, designers , and salespeople. When you're done checking out this industry data, take a look at Insider's searchable database of over 250,000 salaries from more than 250 companies so you can know how much you should be paid. oogle is often touted as one of the best places to work, with compensation to match. A software engineer was offered $353,000, a vice president of engineering can get $475,000, and a senior vice president recently took in an annual salary of $650,000. Here's a look at many other positions and how much they pay across Google. The company's Cloud business has been aggressively building out its workforce as it tries to catch its larger cloud rivals Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure.
  14. New Delhi: One of the many feats of the home becoming everyone's epicentre is that the kitchen has more people in it than usual. Whether it is the kids who are foraging for a tasty snack or your partner asking for a steaming hot cup of chai at any given point of the day! In addition, one has to ensure that everything is in order and in its place. It is essential for you to be able to make the most of your kitchen space as the kitchen has become multifunctional. Fanny Jeanne Jozef Leyten — Interior Design Manager, IKEA India, presents a few handy gadgets to help you get on your way: Countertops: You can start by emptying all visible things from your counter. Search for what you really need on the countertop and keep everything else stacked using the utensil rack. Remember to keep things minimal. Rails: It's not only about what's inside the kitchen cabinets but also what you display from the exterior. Open storage solutions help store and organize your utensils and crockery after cleaning. Cabinets: With this tip, you won't have to fret anymore over what might fall out. Time to get organised. When it comes to cabinets, you must make an inventory of what you want to keep up front and what can be hidden. Maximise your space inside the cabinets by supplementing them with small trays to utilise optimal space. Drawers: Drawer dividers are your best friend to help in storing your utensils or spices in a better way. You can maximise on space and it helps you in time. Define and accentuate the space with bamboo/plastic dividers. Food storage: Organize your food staples too! Apart from waste minimisation, your staples can be maintained in a unit that sustains their shelf life. This also ensures that you don't overspend on food that would otherwise expire sooner rather than later. Tables & trolleys: The dining table has evolved into a multifunctional space. Munching down on a meal is no longer its sole application. It would be wise to have a trolley next to the dining table for easy cleaning up. With all these hacks at different kitchen stations, you must remember that the key to declutter is to be smart about the size of the kitchen you're working with and focus on maximizing space. Decluttering your home is decluttering your mind.
  15. Following a report back in May detailing specs for Sony's upcoming PlayStation 5 VR headset, a fresh report has appeared that echoes a few of these claims and asserts some new information too, including additional hardware info and the revelation that Sony is allegedly focusing on bringing both console-quality AAA games and hybrid flatscreen/VR titles to the PS5 platform. Many of the specs listed below were subject of the reports made in both May (UploadVR) and June (Bloomberg). Road to VR was not able to independently any of these claims, so take them with a grain of salt. Here's a recap of what we've heard so far, and then what's presented in the new report. The next-gen PSVR is said to include: 4.1MP (2,000 x 2,040) per-eye resolution OLED IPD adjustment dial Eye-tracking capable of foveated rendering USB-C tether to PS5 Inside-out tracking Head-mounted haptics Holiday 2022 release date A new report by YouTube channel PSVR without Parole maintains the headset is internally called 'Next Gen VR', or NGVR for short. This, along with the following information, was supposedly released yesterday at a virtual summit for prospective game developers. The headset's display is said to be an HDR-capable OLED, and offer a 110-degree FOV, which is slightly larger than the original's 100-degree FOV. Lenses are said to be of a fresnel design, which may reduce the weight of the headset over the original PSVR's conventional plano-convex lenses. In addition to eye-tracking and foveated rendering, Sony is supposedly implementing something called “flexible scale rendering” (FSR) on PS5 for its next-gen headset. It sounds similar to Oculus' fixed foveated rendering (FFR) technique, which automatically adjusts the level of eye texture foveation based on GPU utilization. The report claims the next-gen PSVR will be bundled with its still-unnamed controllers, which were publicly revealed back in March. Sony says the controllers include the same adaptive triggers as the PS5 DualSense controller, however the report adds that they will include capacitive touch sensors as well, which are placed accordingly to detect the position of the thumb, index, and middle finger. Sony's closed-door conference was said to feature a call to action to move away from VR experiences, and focus more on console-quality AAA games. This includes VR-compatible hybrid games which are designed for dual use on traditional flatscreens and the VR headset, for example Resident Evil 7 Biohazard, Dreams, and No Man's Sky. Sony is allegedly going to make it possible to download whichever version of the game you want so users can save on bandwidth and local storage. It's claimed that the developers behind original PSVR games will be incentivized to remaster games for the new headset, however no mention was made of backwards compatibility
  16. Last month, billionaires Jeff Bezos and Richard Branson captured the world's gaze by each flying to space on spacecraft they'd funded themselves. Both of these historic launches have helped bring to reality the space tourism industry, with hundreds of tickets buyers expected to make their own journeys in the coming years. But while billionaires may capture public attention, the real story of the past decade of the space industry lies not in astronauts but in satellites—and the data they're capable of providing to a wide swathe of industries. In 2020, remote sensing satellite owners and manufacturers pulled in nearly $4 billion in revenue, according to a report from Bryce Tech. These satellites constitute about 17% of the total number of satellites in orbit (communications makes up the bulk), and several of the startups that provide this technology have announced plans to go public this year. “What was previously a very high barrier of entry ecosystem has shifted tremendously over the last couple of years,” says Brady Brim-DeForest. “The cost of launch on a per-pound basis has decreased tremendously and the miniaturization of satellites, of cubesats and microsats, the capabilities they offer now compared to even three or four years ago is mind-blowing.” Brim-DeForest, 37, sees an opportunity in that lowered barrier of entry. That's why his Los Angeles-based software company, Theorem LLC, announced Tuesday that it's launching a new business unit, Theorem Orbital, geared toward providing custom software solutions for its customers that make use of the new data on offer to improve their businesses and cut costs. “We see space as a major driver of disruption,” Brim-DeForest says. “But in order for our clients to compete, they need help navigating it.”
