Thoughts about outsourcing


Outsourcing the work doesn’t mean that the work doesn’t exist. It means that the work is transferred to other company. The reason for the outsourcing is sometimes that some company wants an actor, what knows something better than themselves. And that causes sometimes problems at the workplace, because those jobs, what has been just given to micro support are now behind some ticket.



There was a time when the trend was that micro support was outsourced to some other companies because the need to get “nerds out of the house" was what every company in the world should do. The reason for outsourcing was that the company could now transfer those people to other companies and that’s why they would get more effectiveness to their business, what is true if offender of the service works legally and follows the standards.



They forgot, that every company will send a bill for their services. The outsourcing doesn’t mean that services of that kind of companies are free. They always send a bill to their clients. And those contracts are made like all other contracts in the business environment. If those contracts have a time limit, they might become a very expensive to clients, because the offer of the service would not quit service before the deadline. They think that those services are part of their revenue generation model, and that’s why there will become bills until the contract will come to a deadline.



And if the customer doesn’t know that, will the service become quite expensive. The problem of those outsourced services is that those companies bring them own experts to the workplace, and even if there will be some problems with those workers, the customer must realize, that those workers are working for another company.  If that company, what replaced company’s own workers works in ICT-sector like micro support, the case looks like this: the customer might give to those people keys to their bank-account, e-mails, and other stuff what is in normal cases confidential


That's why the company what works for that sector should be carefully chosen. If that kind of actor plays the unfair game, the results for the company might be devastating. Should I keep micro support as the company’s own business or should it be outsourced is a question, what sometimes is shown in every company around the world. If outsourcing partner is a strong actor, the result could be a success for the company. But good actors are expensive, and in this kind of question we must say, that is somebody offers cheap service, they might want to steal information or they professional skills are disappointing.

MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible

   "This chip-based "tractor-beam," which uses an intensely focused beam of light to capture and manipulate biological particles without damaging the cells, could help biologists study the mechanisms of diseases."(Interesting Engineering, MIT’s Star Wars-inspired ‘tractor beam’ uses light to capture, manipulate cells) MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible. The tractor beam just hovers the nanoparticle in air or medium, and then the laser or some other electromagnetic system transports oscillation into those particles. The ability to make cells and other particles hover in the system makes it possible to create particles whose energy level or resonance frequencies are accurately calculated things.  That thing makes it possible to create things that transmit wave movement accurately and cleanly. This is one version of the use of a tractor beam. Modern tractor beams are like acoustic tweezers where sound waves lock the object in its cr

The new observations tell that the thunderstorms form gamma-rays. That could make gamma-ray lasers possible.

That could make gamma-ray lasers possible. The process has been observed by the NASA (Lockheed) ER-2 research plane, which is a modified U-2 spy plane. The gamma-ray formation in thunderstorms. Where lightning and electric fields release electrons that impact the air molecules and water droplets is an interesting thing. That thing opens the route to solving many mysteries.  "The general physics behind how thunderstorms create high-energy flashes of gamma radiation is not a mystery. As thunderstorms develop, swirling drafts drive water droplets, hail, and ice into a mixture that creates an electric charge much like rubbing a balloon on your shirt. Pos

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

Above: "Tiangong is China's operational space station located in low Earth orbit. (Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things.  In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion.  If we th
