“Unlocking the Power of Quantum Computing: The Future of Technology and its Impact on Society” by Mark M. Whelan

Quantum computing is a type of computing that uses principles of quantum mechanics, such as superposition and entanglement, to perform operations on data. In contrast to classical computing, which uses bits that are either 0 or 1, quantum computing uses quantum bits, or qubits, which can be both 0 and 1 at the same time. […]

“The Future is Under Our Skin: The Rise of Digital Implants and the Impact on our lives” by Mark M. Whelan

Digital Implants by Mark Whelan Digital implants are devices that are implanted inside the human body and are capable of interacting with digital technologies. These implants can take many forms, from tiny sensors that monitor the body’s functions to devices that allow users to control external technologies with their thoughts. While digital implants have the potential […]

“Blockchain Identities: The Future of Digital ID’s and How they’re Changing the Way We Verify and Secure our Online Identities” by Mark M. Whelan

Blockchain identities are digital identities that are stored on a blockchain, a decentralized, distributed ledger that is used to record transactions and other data. A blockchain identity typically consists of a public key, which is used to identify the user, and a private key, which is used to sign transactions and provide proof of ownership […]

Unlocking the Potential of Smart Contracts: Understanding the Future of Secure and Automatic Transactions by Mark M. Whelan

A smart contract is a type of computer program that is used to automatically enforce the terms of a contract or agreement. Smart contracts are often used in the context of blockchain technology, which allows them to be executed and enforced in a decentralized, trustless manner. The main advantage of using smart contracts is that […]
