| The digitization of manufacturing will transform the way goods are made and change the politics of jobs too. The first industrial revolution began in Britain in the late 18th century, with the mechanization of the textile industry. The second industrial revolution came in the early 20th century, when Henry Ford mastered the moving assembly line and ushered in the age of mass production. The first two industrial revolutions made people richer and more urban. Now a third revolution is under way. Manufacturing is going digital. This could change not just business, but much else besides.

| Real problems in software evolution render impossible a fixed, one-size-fits-all approach, and these problems are usually solved by gluing together various tools and languages. Such ad-hoc integration is cumbersome and costly. With the Rascal meta-programming language the Software Analysis and Transformation research group at CWI explores whether it is feasible to develop an approach that offers all necessary meta-programming and visualization techniques in a completely integrated language environment.

| QUANTUM effects are vital to modern electronics. They can also be a damnable nuisance. Make a transistor too small, for example, and electrons within it can simply vanish from one place and reappear in another because their location is quantumly indeterminate. Currents thus leak away, and signals are degraded.Other people, though, see opportunity instead.

| Vanishing languages spoken by only small groups of people around the world could be saved from extinction by social media networks and the internet. Around half of the world's 7,000 languages are expected to have disappeared from use by the end of the century. They are threatened by cultural changes, ethnic shame and government repression. But technology is allowing many languages to increase audience by establishing a presence on YouTube, social media sites like Facebook and Twitter and text messaging.
