The Power of Tomorrow: Technologies that Will Revolutionise Digital Transformation in the Next Decade

Emerging technologies, such as AI, blockchain, and edge computing, will revolutionize industries over the next decade, ushering in a new era of accuracy, efficiency, and resilience.
AI is set to transform healthcare by enhancing diagnostic accuracy and streamlining healthcare through automation, while also playing a pivotal role in strengthening cybersecurity measures.
Edge computing and its ability to process decentralised data will be crucial to improve real-time decision-making, especially for finance and healthcare, while blockchain has the potential to secure data integrity and privacy.
Embracing these new technologies demands a commitment to ethical and responsible use, as well as ensuring that the associated data strategies evolve to keep pace with innovation.
As the role of autonomous systems expands, industry skills gaps pose significant challenges for successful implementation, and companies must also ensure proper integration of emerging technologies to prevent exposure to cyber threats.
AI is expected to evolve as a vital tool for industries grappling with increasing complexity, particularly cybersecurity.
Edge computing stands out as a game-changer that minimizes reliance on centralised data centres, thereby reducing single points of failure and improving operational continuity, although there remain issues with data management, compatibility, and device reliability.
Machine learning will play a crucial role in enabling businesses to process large volumes of data quickly and accurately, leading to more informed decision-making.
Quantum computing could be a game-changer for industries such as material science and chemistry but requires significant investment and could become an arms race, forcing countries to develop sovereign technology.

How to clean a laptop keyboard without damaging the keys

After a few months of use, keyboards of laptops gather oils, dust, food crumbs, and drink drips, which should be cleaned periodically.
Cleaning precautions should be exercised before starting with the process, like backing up important data, turning off and unplugging the laptop.
For removing accumulated dust, it is recommended to use a vacuum cleaner with small brush attachments, instead of compressed air.
To clean the stubborn grime that builds up due to oils, skin cells, and food dust, use a melamine sponge soaked in water, and try to avoid rubbing off any key characters.
For germ-killing, use some isopropyl alcohol and clean each key thoroughly with damp cotton swabs.
In case of spills, shut down and unplug the laptop, take out the battery, and let any liquid inside evaporate before turning it back on.
To clean up the surface of the keyboard and for deeper residue cleaning, the laptop keyboard might have to be removed completely, or some keys can be pry off.
Cleaning should be done periodically to keep the laptop in good condition and avoid unresponsiveness while using it.
Instead of self-cleaning, it's recommended to consult professionals for cleaning the laptop's keyboard.
Learn to clean the laptop regularly, and if the damage is severe, take it to the professionals or shop for a new one.

How to use a laptop with a secondary monitor

Using an external monitor is a great way to improve your laptop experience.
Check the available ports on your laptop and the monitor you want to use.
Modern displays usually support HDMI and DisplayPort while older ones might support VGA and DVI-D.
Use a cable that matches the ports on both your laptop and monitor.
Adapters or converters can be used if there are different connection options.
A docking station or hub can also give you multiple connection options.
Connect your laptop to the monitor using the chosen cable.
If compatible and plugged correctly, you should see your laptop screen on the monitor.
Change the display settings to extend your laptop display on the external monitor.
Connecting your laptop to a TV is also possible for a bigger screen display.

Spilled water on your laptop? Here’s how to fix it

If you spill liquid on your laptop, time is of the essence. Power down your laptop and remove the power cable and battery (if possible).
Remove all easily detachable components, dry the outside of your machine and try to dry it out further yourself.
Do not try to dry the computer with forced hot air from a heat gun or hair dryer. The type of liquid that was spilled matters.
Water is the least acidic, while sugary and alcoholic fluids are more conductive and more corrosive.
Try placing the laptop somewhere warm and dry, and leave it there for 24-48 hours. Running a dehumidifier can help.
Avoid traditional ideas like bags of rice, as they can introduce more problems than they're worth.
While opening up and removing components from earlier laptops was easy, that’s not the case with modern-day laptops. We don’t recommend trying to take anything apart unless you have an older laptop model that’s not mainly glued together.
If your laptop allows it, remove the battery. You can remove memory and storage drive too if you’re concerned about liquid leaking through to the entire system.
If the liquid is anything other than water, wipe it off using a clean toothbrush dipped in 99% isopropyl alcohol.
In a considerably less serious issue where moisture only appears on a laptop screen, turn off the monitor and quickly remove the bulk of the water. Grab a microfiber cloth and dampen it with filtered or distilled water to gently rub the monitor.

Controlling Job Execution with Conditions in GitHub Actions

Conditional execution of jobs in GitHub Actions enables blocking of the execution of jobs unless certain conditions are met.
Conditions are mostly based on various inputs like job outputs, environment variables, and GitHub contexts such as repository names and branches.
Combining job dependencies with conditions provides an elastic way of dealing with complementary job dependencies.
One common challenge within workflows is how to deal with skipped jobs, where the use of conditions like success(), failure(), cancelled(), or always() can come in handy.
CICube is a monitoring tool that provides detailed insights into GitHub Actions workflows, helping optimize workflows, streamlining build times, and minimizing bottlenecks.
When using conditional execution of jobs, remember to carefully investigate behavior and use always() for forcing evaluation alongside other conditions.
Conditional execution of jobs in GitHub Actions reduces time and resource use, and makes workflows more intelligent and responsive to different scenarios.
