Zopfli Optimization Literally Free Bandwidth
In 2007 I wrote about using PNGout to produce amazingly small PNG images. I still refer to this topic frequently, as seven years later, the average PNG I encounter on the Internet is very unlikely to be optimized.

10 Bitcoin Alternatives Crypto Currency Options
Alternative currencies have a certain mystery about them. They are seen as sort of an ?underground? currency because they are not controlled by some central authority like a bank or government. Instead, they are controlled by peers who engage in transactions and/or ?mining,? which is the term for keeping the ledgers.
In a block-chain environment, every transaction is recorded with a finite number of coins in circulation, and many (in some instances all) of the peers have access to that ledger, to prevent fraud. The use of cryptography for complete security and privacy is another element that increases the aura of mystery.
In reality, alternative currencies operate on pretty simple principles of buying selling and investing. Even a few web-based e-commerce sites, like Overstock.com, now accept Bitcoin. It?s just that no government is involved. That in itself can arouse some suspicion, but Bitcoin, the oldest and most well-known alt currency, has been around long enough now that much of the suspicion has dissipated.
But now the competition has arrived, and a good number of alt currencies are now in full swing, and investors have many options. Investing in cryptocurrencies is risky, of course, but many see the long-term rise of Bitcoin value ($428.23 for 1Btc) as a sign that other fledgling alt currencies might do likewise.

Samsung Smartthings Security Flaw What You Need To Know
Security researchers at the University of Michigan have uncovered a number of design flaws in Samsung’s SmartThings platform. The flaws potentially undermine the security of any smart home setups using the SmartThings ecosystem, allowing malicious applications to unlock doors, falsely set off alarms, set home access codes, wake devices from vacation mode, and a host of other attack vectors. In a slight saving grace, one of the attacks is dependent on the user downloading a malicious app from the SmartThings store, or by following a malicious link. Once the malicious app is downloaded, an attacker could effectively conduct a remote...

A Drone Designed To Cure Drought Just Took Flight Over Nevada
Researchers and aviators in Nevada completed the first successful test flight of a drone designed to bring rain to drought-stricken regions. The flight, which took place last week at an FAA-approved test site in Hawthorne, Nevada, was an 18-minute test of the ‘Sandoval Silver State Seeder,’ an unmanned aerial vehicle with an 11-foot wingspan designed to deploy rain-causing silver iodide into clouds. The Seeder only managed an altitude of 400 feet and didn’t cause any precipitation, but the project lead still deemed it “a tremendous accomplishment for the state of Nevada and everyone involved.” Chief engineer Amber Broch echoed the…
