S1/E8: Data in the European Union – a matter of Knowledge, Intelligence, and Wisdom?

After discussing EU policies and legislation that regulate the Software Industry in areas like personal data processing, cybersecurity, and Big-Tech services and competition, this episode will turn our attention to probably the most essential component of the software world, namely data. Yes, in general.

S1/E7: The Digital Services Act and the new notions of VLOP and VLOSE – Part 2

Greetings for the Part 2 of the Digital Services Act (DSA)!

S1/E6: The Digital Services Act and the new notions of VLOP and VLOSE – Part 1

Welcome to a new episode or our series, which explains selected European Union (EU) policies and laws that were recent proposed/applied, and which impact the Software Industry! Today I’m going to explore the very recent Digital Services Act, or DSA.

S1/E5: The Digital Markets Act and the new notion of Gatekeepers

In this episode and the next, we’ll talk about a set of very recent twin EU legislations: The Digital Markets Act and the Digital Services Act, which also have a large impact on the Software Industry, more specifically on the so-called Big-Tech and their relationships with consumers and competitors.

Why (and how) everyone and their neighbour in the Software Sector should be aware of European Union legislation

Quantum computers are a type of computing technology that uses quantum mechanics principles to perform computations. Unlike classical computers, which use binary digits (bits) to represent information as either 0 or 1, quantum computers use quantum bits (qubits) that can be in superposition, meaning they can represent both 0 and 1 at the same time. The development of a fully functional quantum computer is an active area of research, and while significant progress has been made, it is difficult to predict exactly when a working quantum computer will be available.
