Cisco Crisis Response: Re-imagining humanitarian communications and connectivity to optimize social impact – Cisco Blogs

In the six years I have worked on the Cisco Corporate Affairs team, I have seen firsthand how natural disasters and humanitarian crises impact some of the world’s most vulnerable people.   From Hurricane Maria devastating the island of Puerto Rico to armed conflicts forcing people to flee countries like Syria and South Sudan – when crises occur, they most often affect already vulnerable communities that lack the resources to respond and recover from them.   According to the UN, 82.4 million individuals have…

Cisco Cable and Mobility at SCTE Expo – Cisco Blogs

SCTE Cable-Tec Expo starts this week and runs from October 11-14.

Unfortunately, we will have to live with another virtual experience, but that does not mean Cisco does not have some great content to share with the industry. I am excited to…

Innovative virtual visitation connects patients and families – Cisco Blogs

Several years ago, my mother spent more than a month in the ICU at our local hospital, and I was the “daughter on the spot.” The several-times-a-day ICU visitor.

Once installed, users can use Homebrew via the brew command to install packages very easily. Installation of Homebrew itself, however, does generally require sudo privileges…

4 questions that get the answers you need from IT vendors

4 questions that get the answers you need from IT vendors

It’s the time of year when most enterprises are involved in a more-or-less-formal technology review cycle, as a preparatory step for next year’s budgeting. They’ve done this for decades, and it’s interesting to me that in any given year, enterprises share roughly three of their top five priorities. It’s more interesting that over three-quarters of enterprises carry over at least two of their top five priorities for multiple years. Why aren’t they getting addressed? They…

Create, Document, and Share Live Code Examples with Jupyter Notebook

Q: How do you eat a whale? A: One bite at a time… or so the saying goes. Admittedly, I don’t know of anyone who eats whale one bite at a time (or any way otherwise for that matter). But we can all agree that breaking large problems into smaller pieces is a valuable arrow in the quiver of problem-solving techniques. It’s a practice that certainly applies in the world of programming. Once the problem…
