Technology Genomics Hits The Farm Matthew Herper, 01.18.10, 12:00 AM ET When he was growing up on a dairy farm in upstate New York, the only professionals Curtis Van Tassell ever saw were veterinarians. He loved the animals but not the day-to-day monotony. He chose to become a geneticist at the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Now Van Tassell, 45, is responsible for the biggest change in the past century in how dairy cows are evaluated and bred. He conceived a new genetic test--which by... (more)

Deep-Seawater Air Conditioning System to Cool Honolulu | Inhabitat
Frigid seawater pumped in from the ocean’s depths will soon help cool more than half of the buildings in Honolulu’s downtown. Honolulu Seawater Air Conditioning LLC, which is undertaking the $240 million project, expects its technology to cut the Hawaiian city’s air conditioning electricity usage by up to 75 percent while slashing carbon emissions and the use of ozone-depleting refrigerants. The project involves running a five-foot-wide pipeline hundreds of feet below the sea, which will then suck u... (more)

New cloud-based service steals Wi-Fi passwords
IDG News Service - For $34, a new cloud-based hacking service can crack a WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) network password in just 20 minutes, its creator says. Launched today, the WPA Cracker service bills itself as a useful tool for security auditors and penetration testers who want to know if they could break into certain types of WPA networks. It works because of a known vulnerability in Pre-shared Key (PSK) networks, which are used by some home and small-business users. (more)

BBC News - Intel unveils 48-core cloud computing silicon chip
Intel has unveiled a prototype chip that packs 48 separate processing cores on to a chunk of silicon the size of a postage stamp. The Single-chip Cloud Computer (SCC), as it is known, contains 1.3 billion transistors, the tiny on-off switches that underpin chip technology. Each processing core could, in theory, run a separate operating system. Currently, top-end chips for desktop computers typically contain four separate processors. Intel and rival AMD will both launch new six-core devices... (more)

Google Wants to Speed Up the Web: Launches Its Own DNS Service
Written by Frederic Lardinois / December 3, 2009 8:54 AM Google just launched the Google Public DNS. Just like OpenDNS, Google Public DNS will allow users to bypass their ISPs Domain Name Servers (DNS). DNS servers are, in many respects, the backbone of the Internet. DNS allows you to type a domain name like www.senate.gov into a browser instead of a machine-readable IP number like http://156.33.195.33/. Google argues that it wants to give consumers an alternative to their ISPs' DNS services in order ... (more)
