  Knicks' Isaiah Hartenstein is the best backup big man in the NBA New York doesn't think twice at whatever point Hartenstein takes over for Mitchell Robinson The Knicks are attempting to gather some speed into the Christmas season to isolate themselves from the Eastern Meeting pack. In the event that they prevail with regards to making the end of the season games for the second season in succession it would be whenever in 10 years, first establishing the Leon Rose period as potentially the best of the establishment's most recent couple of many years. There are a lot of excellent moves to refer to for the program and culture that has been underlying his three years here, from focusing on Julius Randle to procuring Jalen Brunson in free organization. However, perhaps there's insufficient love for a portion of the more modest arrangements that stuck this group together, for example, marking Isaiah Hartenstein in 2022. After a bombed season running it back with Nerlens Noe...

 Here's a brief overview of the flaws in India's education system: 1. Rote Learning: One major flaw is the emphasis on rote learning, where students memorize information without truly understanding it. This hampers critical thinking and creativity. 2. Lack of Practical Application: The education system often focuses more on theoretical knowledge rather than practical skills. This leads to a gap between what students learn in classrooms and real-world application. 3. Outdated Curriculum: The curriculum in many schools is outdated and fails to keep up with the changing needs of society and the job market. This can result in a mismatch between the skills students acquire and the skills required by employers. 4. Examination Pressure: The education system places excessive emphasis on high-stakes examinations, which can lead to immense stress and a narrow focus on exam-oriented learning rather than holistic development. 5. Inequitable Access: There is a significant disparity in acces...

 The cyber-security firm that identified the large-scale hacking of US government agencies says it "genuinely impacted" around 50 organisations. Kevin Mandia, CEO of FireEye, said that while some 18,000 organisations had the malicious code in their networks, it was the 50 who suffered major breaches. The US Treasury and departments of homeland security, state and defence are known to have been targeted. US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has blamed Russia for the hack. So too have the chairs of the Senate and House of Representatives' intelligence committees. However, President Trump cast doubt on Russia's role in two tweets on Saturday, hinting instead at Chinese involvement. ■   Five Russian hacks that transformed US cyber-security ■   SolarWinds: Why the Sunburst hack is so serious ■   Hacking the heart of the US government Mr Mandia told CBS News that the cyber attack "was very consistent" with what US officials know about the work of Russia's foreign...

A sanitation worker became the first Indian to receive a Covid vaccine as the country began the world's largest inoculation drive.  Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the programme, which aims to vaccinate more than 1.3 billion people against Covid. He paid tribute to front-line workers who will be the first to receive jabs.  India has recorded the second-highest number of Covid-19 infections in the world after the United States.  Millions of doses of two approved vaccines - Covishield and Covaxin - were shipped across the country in the days leading up to the start of the drive.  "We are launching the world's biggest vaccination drive and it shows the world our capability," Mr Modi, said, addressing the country on Saturday morning.  He added that India was well prepared to vaccinate its population with the help of an app, which would help the government track the drive and ensure that nobody was left out. Mr Modi spoke at length about doctors, nurses and oth...

The cases are already beginning to emerge. When 85-year-old Colin Horseman was admitted to Doncaster Royal Infirmary in late December, it was for a suspected kidney infection. But not long afterwards he caught Covid-19 – at the time, roughly  one in four people in hospital  with the virus had acquired it there. He developed severe symptoms and was eventually put on a ventilator. A few days later, he died. At first glance, Horseman's situation may seem fairly typical, though no less tragic for it. After all, at least 84,767 people have now succumbed to the disease in the UK alone at the time of writing. But, as his son recently explained in a  local newspaper , less than three weeks earlier he had been among the first people in the world to receive the initial dose of a Covid-19 vaccine – the Pfizer-BioNTech version. He was due to receive the second dose two days prior to his death. In fact, most vaccines require booster doses to work. Take the MMR – measles, mumps and rub...

 US president-elect Joe Biden has been given his new official presidential Twitter account, but has been forced to start it with zero followers. The Biden campaign is unhappy with the move, which marks a change from the previous transition from Barack Obama. The new account, @PresElectBiden, will transform into the official @POTUS (President of the United States) one on inauguration day on 20 January. In its first six hours online it gained nearly 400,000 followers. Mr Biden's own account has 24 million followers. His team has also registered new accounts - @FLOTUSBiden for the future first lady, Jill Biden, and for the first time, @SecondGentleman, for Ms Harris's husband Doug Emhoff. 'Start from zero' Donald Trump inherited the Potus account's 13 million or so followers when it moved to him from Mr Obama - but that will not happen this time. Mr Biden's team was told about the move less than a month ago, and said it meant "the administration will have to s...

  What is happening actually?   WhatsApp is forcing users to agree to sharing information with Facebook if they want to keep using the service. The company warns users in a pop-up notice that they "need to accept these updates to continue using WhatsApp" - or delete their accounts.  But Facebook, which owns WhatsApp, said European and UK users would not see the same data-sharing changes, although they will need to accept new terms. The exception has been welcomed by some as a victory for EU privacy regulators. The deadline in both regions to accept the change is 8 February, after which "you'll need to accept these updates to continue using WhatsApp", the company said in the pop-up alert to users. A section of the international privacy policy has been removed, which previously let people opt out of sharing personal information with Facebook for the first 30 days after the changes went live. Instead, the latest alert points users to its online help centre "if...

  Messaging platform Signal said on Friday it was experiencing "technical difficulties" as it worked to accommodate millions of new users. Some users reported messages failing to send on both the mobile and desktop apps for several hours. The company has seen a huge uptick in interest since its rival WhatsApp unveiled new privacy terms last week. On Twitter, Signal said it had added servers "at a record pace" and was working to restore service.  "Millions upon millions of new users are sending a message that privacy matters," it said in a tweet. Both Signal and Telegram, another free-to-use encrypted messaging app, have benefited from discontent sparked by WhatsApp'sw updated terms and conditions. WhatsApp told its two billion users they must allow it to share data with its parent company Facebook if they wished to continue using it. This does not apply to users in the UK and Europe - but the notification was sent to everyone.
