Post-'Dry January' digital

With 2022 just around the corner, are you already feeling overwhelmed by digital developments and fearful that your lives will be swallowed up in the metaverse? Don't panic! You may already be one of the 81% of the population who don't understand this craze. Secondly, if you haven't dared to start mining crypto-currencies yet, it may be that you're worried about your sanity and don't want to trade your next snow holiday for a stay in a stay in a castle that looks like a haunted house to undergo a Bitcoin detox! Indeed, the crypto trend exposes you to the same risks of addiction that any money-making activity entails... Aware of our overconsumption of screenswe could start the year with more accessible resolutions. For example, limiting our social posts to 100... for life !! Or not to swipe right or left one day a week? Depending on our condition, we could consider a more radical and more radical and costly solution to disconnect completely

If, in 2016, you were already the type to chase Pokémon on the highway, beware of falling back into the abyss of addiction with the arrival of Fold AR, an augmented reality game invented by the creators of Pokémon Go.

24H Chrono in the Meta(per)vers

Are you a former Sims or Second Life fan who is disenchanted with virtual life, but still curious to see what everyone is talking about? WSJ journalist Joanna Stern has experienced 24 hours in the metarvers and it leaves a mixed impression! Especially since this virtual universe does not escape the perverse excesses of the real world... Do you dare to venture into this jungle with its still very vague rules of behaviour?

Psychology - Right-clicker mentality

If in 2021 you were called a boomer, don't let yourself be labelled a right-clicker in 2022!

Indeed, a simple right-click would allow one to obtain an NFT worth almost $70M (which I did to illustrate this article!). This name actually reveals the cultural divide between those who adopted digital trends early on to get rich and those still firmly attached to the traditional codes of success!

Music - Geekis the new cool?

‍

If I say " badass rapper from Detroit", you probably don't imagine a young computer engineer in front of his computer screen? And yet! Directly influenced by internet trends, US rap culture has seen the emergence of the "scam rap" trend, which promotes the easy money obtained through all sorts of illegal activities on the dark web. These odes to "scamming", in other words online scamming, are veritable 2.0 fraud tutorials. Some artists who are a little too transparent and proud of their practices have exposed themselves to legal proceedings...

Finance - Proud of the Nocode Nation!

At a time when France is celebrating its 25 unicorns, the Nocode community is delighted with the announcement of a new round of funding in Nocode: $13.5M raised by Softr, a platform that allows you to create all kinds of applications from Airtable. The choice of available features is vast and as it is Nocode, the interface is particularly visual, of course!
