The feature would be off the back of the government agency standing up its vaccination administration management (VAM) system in June to initially help manage the state’s COVID-19 vaccination rollout. The VAM system, developed in partnership with ServiceNow using the Now platform, is a single platform designed to manage all stages of the COVID-19 vaccination process – from vaccination booking, administration, to delivery. It also records clinical information, manages clinical workflows, and links in with the federal government’s Australian Immunisation Register....

Building off its recent GTC announcements which introduced its Base Command software to control AI workloads, Nvidia said it had hooked up with NetApp to launch its cloud-based Base Command Platform, which will provide access to SuperPods from $90,000 a month later in the northern hemisphere summer. NetApp is providing the flash storage and managing the customers, with Nvidia owning the equipment that is housed in Equinix data centres. “The intent here is that customers can have access to this powerful supercomputer, the superpod just on a rental basis, they can experience it, they can do their work, and from there they can graduate to either acquiring their own superpod or to go and do AI at scale, for example in the public cloud,” Nvidia head of enterprise computing Manuvir Das said....

The partnership will bring electric trucks to Oatly’s North American operations after seeing success in Europe for the past two years.

The quarter marked Okta’s first as a combined company with Auth0, the identity platform for developers that Okta acquired for $6.5 billion. The newly-combined company was off to a “fantastic start,” CEO and co-founder Todd McKinnon said in a statement....

“This is farther than humanity has ever looked before,” Nelson said, calling the telescope “nothing short of a real scientific feat.” The JWST was launched in December from Europe’s Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana, as part of an international program between NASA, the European Space Agency, and the Canadian Space Agency. Located 1 million miles away from Earth, the telescope was developed to study the evolution of our solar system....

There are two colour options, Black Dusk and my review handset’s rather arresting Blue Tide, whose light-refracting back morphs between baby blue and slightly deeper shades. The upper section of the back houses a large camera camera which stands very proud, causing significant rock-and-roll on the desk when the uncased phone’s screen is prodded. Vertically stripes running the full depth of the camera bump and full width of the phone isn’t the best design idea I’ve ever seen – it looks like someone put sticky tape on this section of the phone....

Also: Headphones: A beginner’s guide to terminology and technology One of the biggest headphone decisions you have to make is between open or closed-back. What exactly does that mean and which ones are right for you? Read on. Open-back headphones: An overview Open-back headphones have an open structure – meaning the ear cans either don’t fasten on the headband or have some sort of perforation that allows air to more easily pass through....

While the rise of free software fundamentally changed how software was used, not everyone was happy with RMS, and his Free Software Foundation (FSF) took on software licensing. So, in 1998, Christine Peterson, in a meeting with Jon “Maddog” Hall, Larry Augustin, Eric S. Raymond, Bruce Perens, and other free software luminaries, came up with the term Open Source. The key difference, then and now, between the two is that free software is about the ethics of sharing code, while open source is focused on the practical benefits of sharing code....

Sophisticated attackers have figured out that the software supply chain is the soft underbelly of the software industry. Beyond the game-changing SolarWinds hack, Google points to the recent Codecov supply chain attack, which stung cybersecurity firm Rapid7 via a tainted Bash uploader. While supply chain attacks aren’t new, Google notes they’ve escalated in the past year, and has shifted the focus from exploits for known or zero-day software vulnerabilities. SEE: Network security policy (TechRepublic Premium) Google describes SLSA as “an end-to-end framework for ensuring the integrity of software artifacts throughout the software supply chain....

The connected fitness company has been branching out into new areas after demand surged during the COVID-19 pandemic. For instance, Peloton bought Precor to improve its supply chain and gain access to brick-and-mortar gym equipment. However, a foray into treadmills resulted in a recall and fourth-quarter charge. In addition, Peloton is facing competition on multiple fronts. Corporate wellness programs have been popular among digital health players, including Google’s Fitbit and Apple....

The new Joint Warfighter Cloud Capability contract is a multi-vendor Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract. The federal government said it anticipates awarding just two IDIQ contracts – one to AWS and one to Microsoft. Among US hyperscale cloud service providers, only AWS and Microsoft “appear to be capable of meeting all of the DoD’s requirements at this time, including providing cloud services at all levels of national security classification,” the US General Services Administration said....

For the past few years, Microsoft has been contributing to Faster Python, a project kicked off by Python creator Guido van Rossum in 2021, shortly after Microsoft hired him as a distinguished engineer, changing his previous plan to retire. The Python creator wanted the language to be more nimble than the lumbering giant it is. Van Rossum wanted it to be twice as fast but Mark Shannon, one of the key contributors to CPython (or Core Python), penned an implementation plan in 2020 for speeding up CPython by five times....

The campaign’s Android Trojan, called Wroba, aims to steals online banking credentials, as it had done in previous attacks. However, researchers say that it can now also access and steal photos and videos from devices. This could allow cybercriminals to carry out more nefarious activities, like blackmail or sextortion.
