Episode 154 | "Proceed Until Apprehended"
Someone leaked the notes from FLTCM Lateef Compton’s “All CPO” All Hands. Why not talk about some of the notes? Damon stays at the “Deluxe NGIS Suite,” but it’s in Lemoore, so it’s not as “deluxe” as it sounds. A 3-mile run, really? The trio discusses the rumored “Joint Service PFA” and what they’ve heard so far. Why are those coyote brown boots so damn expensive? A few of our childhood icons passed away this week (Malcolm Jamal Warner, Ozzy Osbourne, and Hulk Hogan). Let’s take a trip down memory lane—we discuss the great times and also speak o...

NGI - Med blikket mot bakken
Hva er geofagene sin rolle i digitaliseringen av byggebransjen?
Norge ligger langt bak i det digitale skiftet i byggebransjen. Det største hinderet er mangel på kompetanse og data. Gevinstene ved å digitalisere byggebransjen er store i form av kostnadsreduksjon, lavere klimagassutslipp, raskere prosjektgjennomføring og økning i eksport av produkter og tjenester. NGI satser på digital innovasjon og utvikling gjennom NGI Digital, rettet mot geobransjen, som omfatter blant andre geoteknikere, ingeniørgeologer, hydrogeologer og miljøgeologer. Hvilke fordeler har vi ved å jobbe mer digitalt? Hvilken kompetanse trenger byggebransjen på kort og lang sikt for å hindre at norsk byggebransje forblir en digital sin...

Norge er ett av få land i verden som har kvikkleire. Anslagsvis 110 000 mennesker i Norge bor i områder der det finnes kvikkleire. Hvor farlig er det å bo og ferdes i områder med kvikkleire?

भारत में 18% स्टार्टअप में कम से कम एक महिला संस्थापक है: रिपोर्ट
हेडलाइन ➖ भारत में 18% स्टार्टअप में कम से कम एक महिला संस्थापक है: रिपोर्ट एयरो इंडिया में निगरानी कार्यों के लिए डिजाइन किए गए सौर-संचालित ड्रोन का अनावरण किया गया भारत अब लगभग 27,000 सक्रिय तकनीकी स्टार्टअप का घर है आज की खबर :- नैसकॉम की एक रिपोर्ट में कहा गया है कि भारत के पारिस्थितिकी तंत्र में लगभग 18% स्टार्टअप में कम से कम एक महिला संस्थापक या सह-संस्थापक हैं। ड्रोन स्टार्टअप गरुड़ एयरोस्पेस ने बुधवार को यहां एयरो इंडिया 2023 में अपने सौर-संचालित ड्रोन "सूरज" का अनावरण किया, जिसे विशेष रूप से निगरानी संचालन के लिए डिज़ाइन किया गया है। रक्षा मंत्री के प्रधान वैज्ञानिक सलाहकार और डीआरडीओ के पूर्व प्रमुख डॉ. सतीश रेड्डी ने इसका अनावरण किया। भारत ने पिछले साल 1,300 से अधिक सक्रिय टेक स्टार्टअप्स को जोड़ा, सक्रिय टेक स्टार्टअप्स की कुल संख्या 25,000-27,000 तक ले गई, जो चल रहे टेक ऑफ सीजन के बावजूद थी। स्टार्टअप20 एंगेजमेंट ग्रुप - एकमात्र नया समूह - ट्वेंटी का समूह खुद को एक उभयलिंगी संस्था में बदल गया है, जहां बड़े निगमों और स्टार्टअप दोनों की अर्थव्यवस्थाओं को आगे ले जाने में समान आवाज है। टेक स्टार्टअप, इलेक्ट्रॉनिक्स और सूचना प्रौद्योगिकी मंत्रालय ने सॉफ्टवेयर उत्पाद पारिस्थितिकी तंत्र का समर्थन करने के लिए नेक्स्ट जनरेशन इनक्यूबेशन स्कीम (NGIS) लॉन्च की है। आज, भारत तीसरी सबसे बड़ी अर्थव्यवस्था बनने की राह पर है, हमारा आर्थिक उछाल ऑफशोरिंग, विनिर्माण में निवेश, ऊर्जा परिवर्तन और हमारे उन्नत डिजिटल बुनियादी ढांचे से प्रेरित है। हालाँकि, भारत को वास्तव में समृद्ध होने के लिए, भारत को साथ आना होगा। भारत ने वैश्विक रूप से तीसरे सबसे बड़े प्रौद्योगिकी-संचालित स्टार्टअप पारिस्थितिकी तंत्र के रूप में अपनी स्थिति बरकरार रखी, 2022 में नए तकनीकी स्टार्टअप की संख्या 2021 में स्थापित स्टार्टअप की तुलना में 40% कम थी। रिपोर्ट दिखाई। माइक्रो, स्मॉल एंड मीडियम एंटरप्राइज (MSME), फरीदाबाद की ग्रीन गोल्ड बैम्बू टेक प्राइवेट लिमिटेड महाराष्ट्र में राज्य के वन विभाग से भुगतान में देरी के मुद्दों का सामना कर रही है, TOI ने बताया। ई-कॉमर्स फर्म उड़ान की फिनटेक शाखा उड़ानकैपिटल ने कहा कि उसने पिछले 24 महीनों में 2,500 से अधिक एमएसएमई (सूक्ष्म, लघु और मध्यम उद्यम) खरीदारों को 4,000 करोड़ रुपये से अधिक की कार्यशील पूंजी के वितरण की सुविधा प्रदान की है। वैश्विक बाजारों में सकारात्मक चाल के बीच भारतीय इक्विटी बेंचमार्क के गुरुवार के सत्र की शुरुआत हरे रंग में होने की संभावना है। सिंगापुर एक्सचेंज (SGX) निफ्टी फ्यूचर्स - निफ्टी 50 इंडेक्स का एक शुरुआती संकेतक - 61 अंक बढ़कर 18,081 ekasi.5 पर दलाल स्ट्रीट पर खुलने की घंटी से आगे निकल गया। #DRONE #TECH #NGIS #DRDO #SGX #MSME #AEROSPACE

Hvordan forsker vi på snø og snøskred?
Etter flere store snøskredulykker mot slutten av 1960-tallet og begynnelsen av 1970-tallet bestemte norske myndigheter i 1972 at NGI skulle ha ansvar for norsk snøskredforskning. På Strynefjellet ble det opprettet en egen forskningsstasjon, Fonnbu, og skredløpet Ryggfonn. Dette er ett av verdens to fullskala forsøksfelt for snøskred. Snø er et spennende og utfordrende materiale. Ingen snøkrystaller er like. Fordi snøen er like ved smeltepunktet, er den hele tiden i forandring. NGIs snøskredekspert Christian Jaedicke har en doktorgrad i meteorologi og snøfysikk og har jobbet 20 år med snø og snøskred. H...

Kan overskuddsmasser fra bygg og anlegg bli til ressurser?
Byggevirksomhet, som boliger og infrastruktur som veier og jernbane, generer store mengder med overskuddsmasser. Hvert år blir over 5 millioner tonn med forurensede overskuddsmasser fraktet til deponier, som tilsvarer mer enn 300 000 lastebillass. Men hva om vi i stedet kan klare å få til gjenbruk? I forskningssenteret earthresQue jobber representanter for avfallsbedrifter, entreprenører, kommune- Norge, fylkeskommuner og grunneiere sammen for å finne innovative løsninger for gjenbruk.
