'British Bill Gates' Lynch laments HP's Autonomy 'botch-up'

Mr. Peterson

In memory of PT Barnum

"After the acquisition, Lynch and his Autonomy management team set up Invoke Capital with $1bn of capital.

Invoke on Monday announced its first investment, putting an undisclosed amount into a cyber security firm called Darktrace that uses mathematical research from the University of Cambridge in its software."

Wait! What? Per the recent NSA revelations & PC HW & SW supposedly all riddled w/backdoors, I thought there was no such thing as genuine cyber security.

David Attenborough warns that humans have stopped evolving

Mr. Peterson

"Britain's most popular naturalist has warned in an interview that humans have become the first species to effectively halt the influence of natural selection."

Apple spanked by judge in price-fixing injunction – but not too hard

Mr. Peterson
