Today's Story Highlights

Demystifying 5G - It's Real and It's Here
Every decade the wireless industry transitions to a new cellular
technology, and every generation there are doubts about it. This
continues with 5G. I have heard from consumers and even people within
the industry that there is "no need for 5G," "5G is only for
businesses," "5G won't be available until 2025," "mmWave is only for
fixed wireless access," and "radiation from mmWave is harmful."

Thanks, Analysts, for Doing a High Risk, Low Reward Job
I'd like to dedicate this column to the analysts out there who are
fighting the good fight -- who are risking their careers, reputations,
and sometimes even their lives to do the right thing, often without
credit, and knowing that doing the right thing can exact incredible
personal costs. Being an analyst, I'm often reminded that other jobs
depend on my doing my job right.

ISACA Board Member Gabriela Reynaga on Gender, Tech and Perceptions
ISACA, a global nonprofit organization focused on the development,
adoption and use of globally accepted, industry-leading knowledge and
practices for information systems, recently released "Tech Workforce
2020: The Age and Gender Perception Gap." Based on a survey of 3,587
ISACA members in 126 countries, this report examines the work
experiences and perceptions of workers in tech fields.

Cleverly Reimagined Slax Distro Pushes Portable Linux's Limits
Slax Linux is a handy portable operating system that can be a useful
alternative to bulky, more complicated Linux options that install to a
hard drive. However, it is far from a complete out-of-the-box solution.
That is not a bad thing, though. Slax works. Copying just one folder
from the downloaded ISO directly to a USB drive gives you a fully
functional Linux OS.

Disney+ Is a Wonderful World for Tykes and Geeks
Disney+ has made its official debut, with a few minor hiccups. It is
widely available via a plethora of devices, offers a breadth of content,
and serves quick and seamless downloads to mobile devices. However, with
a heavy focus on Disney animated films, Marvel superhero movies and Star
Wars , this service might not be quite the Netflix killer that the Walt
Disney Company claims it is.

Early Reviews Suggest Google Stadia Needs More Time in the Oven
Google just raised the curtain on its Stadia streaming gaming platform,
and the early reviews are mixed at best. For $129, gamers can get the
hardware they need to take the service for a spin -- a Stadia
controller, and a Chromecast Ultra for playing games on a TV. The
package includes access to one game and a three-month subscription to
Stadia Pro, which supports 4K 60 frames-a-second gaming.

Apple to Conduct 3 Medical Studies Using Research App
Apple is getting into the medical research field with its recent
announcement of three studies to be conducted through its Research app.
Apple Watch and iPhone users in the United States can use the app to
enroll in the Apple Women's Health Study, the Apple Heart & Movement
Study, and the Apple Hearing Study. Participants can use their Apple
devices to contribute data to the studies.

GitHub Aims to Make Open Source Code Apocalypse-Proof in Arctic Vault
GitHub wants to make sure its entire warehouse of open source code
survives an apocalypse by burying it deep within an Arctic vault as one
of several preservation strategies. Microsoft-owned GitHub is creating
the Arctic Code Vault as a data repository for the existing Arctic World
Archive. The AWA is a very-long-term archival facility about 0.16 miles
deep in the permafrost of an Arctic mountain.

Banishing Bias From the Leadership Selection Process
I'm spending a lot of time these days looking at the evolving market for
artificial intelligence and the problem of bias. I think the problem in
part is due to confirmation bias -- the need to look only at the
information that agrees with a position already set. Another
contributing factor is the lack of a set of metrics that we can apply
consistently. AI systems will face similar problems.

The Thorny Problem of 5G Security
A few years ago, putting the words "mobile telecoms security" in the
title of an article would be a license to write whatever you wanted
below, because no one was likely to read any of the words after the
title. Sprinkling the magic ingredient 5G has changed this, and "5G
security" is a hot topic now. What has changed? There is a geopolitical
aspect to 5G security, but it is not the full story.
