Passwords to be replaced by Web Authentication

It looks iike login usernames and passwords are on __(I)__ way out. No longer will we have to worry about the security of __(II)__ login credentiais. They are set to be replaced by an infinitely more secure login system known as Web Authentication. Web Authentication has become an official standard for logging in at the main Internet standards body, the World Wide Web Consortium (WWWC). It is a system that will be universally used by web browsers and platforms for simpier and stronger authentication processes. It will allow website users to iog in securely to their online accounts using a digital device, biometrics (such as fingerprints and facial recognition) or USB security keys.

The WWWC spoke about the days of passwords being numbered. A spokesperson said: "lt’s common knowledge that passwords have outlived their efficacy. Not only are stoien, weak or default passwords behind 81 per cent of data breaches, they are a drain of time and resources." It added: "Now is the time for web Services and businesses to adopt Web Authentication to move beyond vulnerable passwords and help web users improve the security of their online experiences," Web Authentication means users are at less risk of having their passwords and credentiais stoien. This is because login authentication is achieved via physicai vices or biometrics from our body.

                                         Robotic Cars

The year is 2020, and it’s 7;45 on a rainy Monday morning, and you are in your car on your way to work. You turn right, and you turn left. A few minutes later, you stop at a traffic light. When the light turns green and there are no other cars in the intersection, you continue on your way. Ten minutes later you get to work and stop reading the morning paper. Then, you get out of your car and you say, “Thank you!". Your car replies, “You’re welcome!’’. This possibie future may sound unreai, but in fact many car companies are aiready testing robotic cars, or driverless cars, on the roads today, although the cars don't speak very much yet.

In the 1980s, Germany and the United States tested the first driverless cars, and by 2020 companies such as Volvo, GM, Nissan and BMW plan to seil driverless cars. Driverless cars are not really ‘driverless - the drivers are computers that use radar, Computer maps and other modern technology. They offer many advantages. Perhaps the most important of these is fewer deaths caused by road accidents. For example, in 1968 more than 53.000 people lost their lives in car accidents in the USA. This number has fallen to less than 33.000 but it’s still a high number. In addition, people will spend iess time stuck in traffic jams and there will be no need for people to have a driving license. One of the major disadvantages of this new technology, however, is the cost. It’s not free. U$5.000 to U$10.000 is added to the price of the new car. Nevertheless, at some time in your life, you will probably be sitting in a robotic, ;driverless car on your way to work or school. The future is almost here. Are you ready for it?

TEXTO 03 

A Pêndula

Saí dali a saborear o beijo. Não pude dormir; estirei-me na cama, é certo, mas foi o mesmo que nada. Ouvi as horas todas da noite. Usualmente, quando eu perdia o sono, o bater da pêndula fazia-me muito mal; esse tique-taque soturno, vagaroso e seco, parecia dizer a cada golpe que eu ia ter um instante menos de vida. Imaginava então um velho diabo, sentado entre dois sacos, o da vida e da morte, a tirar as moedas da vida para dá-las à morte, e a contá-las assim:

- Outra de menos .. .

- Outra de menos .. .

- Outra de menos .. .

- Outra de menos .. .

O mais singular é que, se o relógio parava, eu dava-lhe corda, para que ele não deixasse de bater nunca, e eu pudesse contar todos os meus instantes perdidos. Invenções há, que se transformam ou acabam; as mesmas instituições morrem; o relógio é definitivo e perpétuo; o derradeiro homem, ao despedir-se do sol frio e gasto, há de ter um relógio na algibeira, para saber a hora exata em que morre.' Naquela noite não padeci essa triste sensação de enfado, mas outra, e deleitosa. As fantasias tumultuavam-me cá dentro, vinham umas sobre outras, à semelhança de devotas que se abalroam para ver o anjo-cantor das procissões. Não ouvia os instantes perdidos, mas os minutos ganhados; e de certo tempo em diante não ouvi coisa nenhuma, porque o meu pensamento, ardiloso e traquinas, saltou pela janela fora e bateu as asas na direção da casa de Virgília. Aí achou ao peitoril de uma janela o pensamento de Virgília, saudaram-se e ficaram de palestra. Nós a rolarmos na cama, talvez com frio, necessitados de repouso, e os dois vadios ali postos, a repetirem o velho diálogo de Adão e Eva.

                                Mais ócio, por favor

      Quando o sociólogo italiano Domenico De Masi lançou o conceito de “ócio criativo”, em seu livro homônimo de 2000, foi alçado à condição de pensador revolucionário e à lista dos mais vendidos.

      O sucesso se deveu à explicação do espírito daquele tempo, ao apontar que tão essencial ao crescimento profissional quanto o estudo e o trabalho eram os momentos de desconexão com a labuta que abririam as portas para a criatividade e para “pensar fora da caixinha”. A intenção era alcançar uma fusão entre estudo, trabalho e lazer para aprimorar o conhecimento, vivenciar diferentes experiências e instigar a criatividade.

      Com o lançamento de “Uma Simples Revolução”, um best-seller, o sociólogo prega uma nova guinada no pensamento empresarial.

      Ao analisar as taxas de desemprego e de desocupação, para De Masi, a única saída é reduzir a carga de trabalho individual e abrir novas vagas. “Se as regras do jogo não mudarem, o desemprego – aberto ou oculto – está destinado a crescer em dimensão patológica”, escreve.

      O Brasil é um dos países que vivem essa realidade, com um desemprego de mais de 13 milhões de pessoas, segundo dados mais recentes do IBGE (Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística). Mais de 5 milhões de pessoas procuram trabalho no país há um ano ou mais, o que representa quase 40% desse total.

      A lógica do mercado não ajuda a melhorar esses números. As empresas tentam reduzir suas folhas de pagamento, mesmo que isso signifique mais horas extras.

      Só que, de acordo com o sociólogo, quanto mais horas um indivíduo trabalha, mais ele contribui para a taxa de desocupação. “Na Alemanha, onde todos trabalham, em média, 1400 horas, o desemprego está em 3,8% e o emprego está em 79%. Já na Itália, onde um italiano trabalha em média 1800 horas, o desemprego está em 11% e o emprego está em 58%”, detalha.

      “Para eliminar o desemprego, o único remédio válido é reduzir as horas de trabalho, mantendo o salário e aumentando o número de vagas”, diz, em entrevista ao UOL.
