"Bit by Bit" -- The Discovery Files
Researchers at MIT have improved upon a technique known as "frequency hopping," which protects data transmitted over the internet by sending them across random frequencies. Rather than randomize data in packets of thousands of bits, the MIT method does so with every 1 or 0 bit of data every microsecond -- the smaller data load and faster speed could make the information less likely to be intercepted by hackers.

What type of Self-control/Grit is More Useful?
I recently came across an article titled “More than Resisting Temptation: Beneficial Habits Mediate the Relationship between Self-Control and Positive Life Outcomes” by Brian Galla and Angela Duckworth, which argues that the positive outcomes associated with self-control have more to do with habits for self-regulation, than with in-the-moment exercise of willpower.
