Monday, 8 September 2014. Mir hunn e neie Feierwon. De Feierwon was also a symbol of the heavy steal industry in the south in the so-called Minette region of Luxembourg. It was an important industrial era for Luxembourg. But like in similar regions outside of Luxembourg like Wallonia and the Saar area, the steal industry declined and Luxembourg had to reconvert its economy to other sources of income. We have a new chariot of fire. You may say that this is nice but economic success remains of course depen...

Wim Lahaye's blog: The digital divide
http://wimlahaye.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-digital-divide.html
Monday, 6 July 2015. The political world recognises that Internet connectivity has become an essential utility like water, electricity, fuel or gas. Every household, rich or poor, should have the possibility to watch what is going on in the world (television) and should be able to retrieve the information he requires and interact with others (internet). The Other 3 Billion people") are organisations that are working on bridging this digital divide. See also my blog: " Africa, something has changed.

Tuesday, 7 October 2014. SETI - Search for ExtraTerrestrial Intelligence. Who remembers the wonderful series " Cosmos. Presented by astronomer Carl Sagan. In the early '80s? It was a wonderful series of documentaries about the universe and its origins. The series was important in my life because it rose my interest in science and technology and it changed my view on life in many ways. Carl Sagan was a team member of the Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence task force initiated by Frank Drake.

Wednesday, 4 March 2015. Africa: something has changed. I still remember the days that Africa was hardly mentioned in the commercial world of satellite and telecommunications operators. This has changed significantly in the last 10-15 years. Africa has become a key continent in commercial business awareness. It is good to recognise that our global economy also shows some positive evolutions. More about this on the SES blog:. Explore the potential of the African continent. Africa: something has changed.

Tuesday, 19 May 2015. Science saves us from our anthropocentrism. Man has a natural tendency to construct a world view that puts himself in the middle. This is logical. If we look at the observable. World, we are. In the middle. However, science has already taught us a few lessons and these lessons may lead to modesty. Why would an animal not have a consciousness? Basically, we are not sure. It is possible. In fact, it is even a great idea.although not verifiable today and therefore it can al...That scie...

Sunday, 19 April 2015. Truth and justice are not found through alliances. Our opinions are coloured by our alliances and friendships. It is good to be aware of this. Love and hatred follow a sign multiplication rule, which works as follows:. The friend of my friend is my friend. ( = ). The enemy of my friend is my enemy. (- = -). The friend of my enemy is my enemy. ( - = -). The enemy of my enemy is my friend. (- = ). Found through alliances and friendships and certainly not through prejudice and gossip&...

Monday, 11 May 2015. Disasters occur more than ever. This is reality and perception at the same time. It is reality, because climate change is a reality. People also settle at more places on earth, and expose themselves to additional risks. But it is also perception, because we are better informed about what happens on this globe.

Thursday, 4 June 2015. Satellite ADS-B takes off. ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast) is a technology for surveillance and tracking of air planes. The purpose is comparable to radar. The difference with radar is that with ADS-B, the air plane itself is broadcasting its position, velocity and direction to the air traffic controllers through a VHF signal. This is possible through the combination of a GNSS (GPS) receiver and a VHF transmitter on board of the air plane,. View my complete pro...

Wim Lahaye's blog: Social web addiction
http://wimlahaye.blogspot.com/2015/02/social-web-addiction.html
Wednesday, 4 February 2015. Why do we get so addicted? Blog, that you. Why is social web addiction a problem? The true reason why social web addiction is a problem is that the people who are physically around us (children, parents, neighbours, direct colleagues) don't get enough attention. This is a problem if they are not part of our web discussion groups. What is the solution? I believe we need to create time limits. And we need to create routine. I also refer to my earlier blogs: you are your time.
