A few weeks ago, I wrote about the Australian Security Exchange’s (ASX) plans to convert the bulk of its trading activity to a blockchain-based system. In its annual earnings report, it reassured stakeholders that it would save $23 billion a year with new distributed ledger tech (DLT).

Atlassian today launched Jira Ops at its Summit 2018 conference in Barcelona. Jira Ops is the latest addition to the Jira suite of project management tools, and aims to make the process of incident response easier by stitching commonly used tools into one coherent product, which can manage everything from reporting and resolution, to post-mortem analysis.

Sorry, what’s that? You roll your weed up in paper? And burn it with fire? Look, I admire the nostalgia, but it’s all about the vapes these days and I want to find the best the world has to offer. So, this time round, I’m going to be looking at the Davinci IQ. While the vape market is as crowded as a tube system during rush hour, a few models have stood out. And alongside the Pax 3 – which we have already covered – the Davinci IQ is one of the vapes at the top of the smokey tree.
