Welcome, fellow hackers!
Our publication is dedicated to great minds.
Many of these are behind the technologies that drive us into a better future. Amid the invasion of Ukraine, this knowhow is among the ultimate tools for supporting our friends in the war effort. Whilst we pray for a better world, our publication would also like to salute those who hack to defend it.
We will of course share some exciting features from hue.tools, AI in children’s’ development, as well as new app selections from the Linux range. We’ve also recognised one of several efforts to help the Ukrainian scientific community.
Hackers, coders, and digital demagogues; put your squabbles aside, and let’s do our part to help. Lend a hand, donate, or support an organisation. We’re in this together.
Sincerely,
Dan ‘the Man’ Kowalski

It’s just one of the many initiatives out there, see the article link for more information.

Password Wordle
Bring out the hacker in you. It’s time for a game we love, but with a touch of mindfulness. All you need to do is guess the content of the following password, using your mind, some luck, and a positive can-do attitude. Can’t do it? That might be the point of this exercise. But that’s half the fun.

AI in Children’s Lives
Younger generations will be exposed to artificial intelligence. Is that a good thing? Depends how you look at it. There are great educational opportunities, whereas healthcare can be more accessible. The tricky part is ensuring rights and youths’ developmental stages will also be respected. Exposure to technology can be a good thing – let’s make sure we do it right.

I Love Hue
Admit it, some colours will never look good on paper. So for those looking to make a real ‘pop’ in their digital designs, I recommend going no-further than hue.tools for a splash of vibrancy unlike anything you’ll ever see. Match, blend, and modify such an array of colour combinations that sting with such intensity – you’ll swear you’ve received a Vitamin-C injection!
