No matter who you are or what sort of things you do in life, there’s a pretty good chance you have to deal with PDF files from time to time. This document format has had its day, and it causes numerous problems on modern screens, yet it just doesn’t show any signs of going away. I think the need to get rid of PDF files is becoming more clear by the day, but what exactly would we replace them with? The undying zombie of digital documents There’s a special kind of digital misery that comes from opening a 57-page PDF…

Pro-Iranian hackers are targeting sites in the Middle East and starting to stretch into the United States during the war, raising the risk of American defense contractors, power stations and water plants being swept into a wave of digital chaos that could expand if Tehran’s allies join the fray. Hackers supporting Iran claimed responsibility for a significant cyberattack Wednesday against U.S. medical device company Stryker. Since the war began Feb. 28, they also have tried to penetrate cameras in Middle Eastern countries to improve Iran’s missile targeting. They have targeted data centers in the region, as well as industrial facilities…
Did you know your Android phone can automatically lock if someone snatches it? Google has included many such anti-theft protections in its Android operating system and across OEMs to not only make it easy to locate your phone, but also make it more and more difficult to access, unlock, or format your phone when it’s stolen. However, most of the advanced anti-theft protections are disabled by default. This is often because some of these features need you to log in with your OEM account, have biometric authentication enabled, and add a safe place like your home or office before you…

Here’s how to build a measurement flywheel that keeps your growth efficient. The 4-step measurement cycle Imagine a Bay Area SaaS company, PowerLoop, selling an AI-powered analytics platform.

Hiding your best WooCommerce reviews on product pages is like keeping your top salespeople in the back room. When reviews are scattered or hidden, most visitors never see them. And that means missed chances to earn trust and make sales. By showing your reviews on your homepage and other key pages, visitors can see real customer experiences right away. This helps them feel confident about buying and gives your store a real boost in credibility and conversions. After testing several plugins, I found that Smash Balloon’s Reviews Feed Pro makes it easy to display WooCommerce reviews anywhere on your WordPress…

BioCatch has announced the launch of DeviceIQ, a comprehensive new device identification and intelligence product that transforms how financial institutions evaluate the trustworthiness of devices used for digital banking. Traditional device identification has grown increasingly unreliable. Criminals utilize sophisticated evasion techniques (emulators, device spoofing, cloaked browsers, jailbroken devices, and data-wiping) to commit fraud repeatedly from the same physical devices. New technologies like agentic browsers add another layer of complexity by separating a user’s actions from the device signals on which banks rely to understand that activity. At the same time, financial institutions must comply with increasingly stringent privacy protections and…
For most of the past 20 years, growing travel marketing meant producing more and more output. This happened because success depended on building additional landing pages for new destinations, publishing steady streams of blog posts to capture long-tail searches, translating and localizing content to enter international markets, and manually refining campaigns to squeeze small gains from organic and paid channels. So when time, budget, or team capacity ran out, growth usually slowed with it. AI changes that model, but not simply because it can generate content faster, since the deeper shift is that content can now respond and adapt to…
