Industry 4.0. a cultural revolution before a technology one

Antonio Ieranò 12/05/2016 Editorials, Editorials in English

Industry 4.0. a cultural revolution before a technology one by Antonio Ieranò We are used to deal with linguistic expressions consisting of a name and two wagered numbers whose second is a zero: Type 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 and so on. Referenced in ascending order, the figures would suggest an evolution, a transition to a more advanced version (or up to date one) of a given situation or a certain object. Among the first to show itself, and the best known not only among the experts there is definitely “web 2.0”. It is a fascinating phenomenon from an ideal point of…

Industria 4.0. Rivoluzione culturale prima che tecnologica

Antonio Ieranò 12/05/2016 Editoriali in Italiano, Editorials

Industria 4.0. Rivoluzione culturale prima che tecnologica Siamo ormai abituati ad avere a che fare con espressioni linguistiche costituite da un nome e due numeri puntati il cui secondo è uno zero: tipo 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 eccetera. Messe in ordine ascendente, le cifre dovrebbero suggerire un’evoluzione, un passaggio verso una versione più avanzata (o aggiornata) di una data situazione o di un certo oggetto. Fra le prime ad imporsi e più note non solo fra gli addetti ai lavori c’è sicuramente “web 2.0”. Si tratta di un fenomeno affascinante dal punto di vista ideale, che ha fatto cultura, che ha…

Learning from mistakes is not an easy task to accomplish

Learning from mistakes is not an easy task to accomplish It is common to read that we should learn from our mistakes. It is absolutely true.

Qualche volta bisogna ammetterlo, certi personaggi non sono come gli altri, hanno la capacità di segnare la cultura di un paese in maniera indelebile. Marco pannella è deceduto oggi. Un combattente, uno che ci credeva fino in fondo. Magari potevi non essere d’accordo con le sue battaglie, ma credo che in pochi abbiano il coraggio dimostrato da questo leone della politica. Uno che si è speso senza tregua fino alla fine per le sue idee; idee di libertà, giustizia ed uguaglianza, non dimentichiamolo. Verrà forse ricordato per la sua battaglia vittoriosa per il divorzio, o per le mille battaglie successive, ha…

unhappy employee are a cyber security concern

Antonio Ieranò 05/01/2016 AI Tech Update, Editorials, Editorials in English, Tech Update in English

Have you ever considered the fact that the “best place to work” is something a security chap should take into serious consideration? A lot of people keep thinking that security is all about one of that technology, most of those expert master perfectly one of another specific technology and think they have the sacred graal of security. Since I am not so a big tech expert I am allowed to think that security isn’t in that specific technology, but in a systemic approach where technology cover just one part, and is just a part of a whole process. One of the aspect…

Cryptography, keeping on the big lie

Antonio Ieranò 03/13/2016 AI Tech Update, Editorials, Editorials in English, Personal, Sic Transit Gloria Mundi, Tech Update in English

So Cryptography would be a National Security Issue? I’m tired to be polite and politically correct when talking about encryption. Let us be clear and honest, all those crypto_war is a pile of crap. Every time I heard someone claiming that we should not enforce strong cryptography I wonder: to they have the slightest idea what they are talking about? Probably not, considering also most of the objections against cryptography I heard. Listening to those “enlighten” minds it seems that without cryptography the world be a sort of heaven where intelligence could have the possibility to solve any criminal case. And…

Our memories are all we have

Antonio Ieranò 03/05/2016 Editorials, Editorials in English, Personal, Sic Transit Gloria Mundi

I am in China for work, with a few connection to the real world outside, so Italian news usually comes to me late, when I am able to connect to internet from hotel; great firewall allowing. Being isolated from the Italian reality put things into a different perspective, allow you to keep less news with more time to digest and think about. It happened a few days ago I learned of the death of Umberto Eco, one of the greatest Italian tinker of our age. He was a great writer, a great thinker, a truly free spirit. The first thing I did…

Management style, common error to avoid

Antonio Ieranò 03/04/2016 AI Tech Update, Editorials, Editorials in English, Tech Update in English

Management style, common error to avoid Being a manager is a hard job, and it deals with cultural, economical, corporate issues and rules. But being a manager is indeed an important job usually performed with a not clear idea on what a manager should do. We can find Bad and Good managers, and most of the times they do not even realize where they stand in the good or bad dashboard, because usually nobody teach you what to be a manger means. Nevertheless there is a world of literature on management, so If someone really want to improve from naïve…

The rightful way to make an employee unhappy

Antonio Ieranò 02/29/2016 AI Tech Update, Editorials, Editorials in English, Personal, Sic Transit Gloria Mundi, Tech Update in English

Management is a difficult art, management in big corporations is more difficult. Management in a corporation where the multicultural requirement is a need is even harder. We all know it and, to a certain extent, we have to deal with it. We can’t expect everything works well and right, and we have to show flexibility and we have to be open to change and embrace the new but… Let’s be real, no matter how much effort you put sometimes things are just not right. When the environment is too toxic probably is better to leave than hoping for a change. …

The fine art to make impossible what is possible. (Or why many projects fail)

Antonio Ieranò 02/28/2016 AI Tech Update, Editorials, Editorials in English, Personal, Tech Update in English

I know there is always a great distance between reality and management, Sometimes it happens to me to bump into a real good manager, but it is mostly an exception to the general rule than the norm. I would say that my personal opinion is that because nowadays management mostly is all but dealing with reality, with the prevalent culture that has moved from production to finance, we moved from the real economy to a virtual representation that does not take into account many factors because focused only on few parameters. The result is quite interesting since, from one side,…
