* Home Select Page * Home SCI/TECH TIDBITS IN AND AROUND NEW HAMPSHIRE MASS GENERAL HOSPITAL TO TRY NON-AUTONOMOUS DRONES TO DELIVER MEDICINE TO PATIENTS’ HOMES by David Brooks | Jan 19, 2024 UniversalHub, a Boston-oriented news site, reports that a company with the maybe-clever-maybe-annoying name of Draganfly ("a" not "o") will provide non-autonomous drones to Mass General in a test of delivering medicine, even medical equipment, to patients' homes. The... read more NWS CONFIRMS THAT IT’S OUR WINTER HAS BEEN RECORD WET, EVEN IF NOT VERY SNOWY by David Brooks | Jan 17, 2024 National Weather Service in Gray, Maine, which covers NH and most of Maine, says the first half of meteorological winter (Dec., Jan., Feb.) has been the wettest on record for both the Concord and Portland stations. That includes rain - so, so much rain - and melted... read more REPORT: MANCHESTER POLICE USING AI-DRIVEN SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS, PART OF A NATIONAL NETWORK by David Brooks | Jan 16, 2024 A site called 404media says it looked at scraped data about a national network of shared public and private surveillance cameras and found "more than a hundred" police departments, sheriff's departments and others using them - including Manchester NH police. The full... read more THIS SUMMER WILL SEE TWO SETS OF CICADAS EMERGING! by David Brooks | Jan 16, 2024 MassLive reports (here): This summer, millions of cicadas from broods XIX (emerging every 13 years) and XIII (every 17 years) will both crawl out from underground and fly across the south and Midwest looking for a mate, according to Cicadamania, a website dedicated to... read more GRANITE GEEK: THE PERIL AND PROMISE (AND PLENTY MORE PERIL) OF A.I. by David Brooks | Jan 16, 2024 As mythological metaphors go, the one that SNHU professor David Humphreys gave during a recent talk about the eruption of technologies known as artificial intelligence wasn’t terribly reassuring. “We’ve opened a Pandora’s box,” he told two dozen university students... read more NH WANTS TO KNOW MORE ABOUT FISHERS by David Brooks | Jan 16, 2024 Over the years I have occasionally glimpsed a scurrying weasel-like shape that might be a fisher but I can't say with certainty that I've ever seen one, much to my annoyance. These elusive beasts are the subject of a $2 million grant to NH Fish and Game from the... read more NH PATENTS THROUGH JAN. 14 by David Brooks | Jan 16, 2024 (Links to each patent can be found here, using the patent number or inventor’s name.) By Targeted News Service WASHINGTON – The following federal patents were assigned in New Hampshire through Jan. 14. *** Inter-Cell Fractional Frequency Reuse Scheduler PARALLEL... read more GRANITE GEEK CLASSIC: “WINDSHIELD WIPERS UP OR DOWN?” by David Brooks | Jan 15, 2024 As long as I'm using this excellent snowstorm as an excuse to avoid thinking of new articles - I mean, to rerun popular classics - let's dust this one off from 2015. Winter brings many vital issues to the fore, perhaps none more contentious than this: Wipers up or... read more CONCORD HAS A CHANCE TO MAKE A BIG CLIMATE MOVE by David Brooks | Jan 12, 2024 The city of Concord has a golden opportunity to show that it's serious about its admirable clean-energy goals, but it's not the sort of opportunity you might think of. Two huge mixed-use developments are proposed for the city: here's a Monitor story about a recent... read more ‘CLEAN CEMENT’ FACTORY COMING TO MASSACHUSETTS by David Brooks | Jan 12, 2024 In Holyoke, Mass., on the Connecticut River, they're replacing a closed paper mill with a factory that will make "clean cement." If it lives up to hopes, that would be a big deal since making cement is a huge emitter of carbon. From the article in Heatmap (read it... read more « Older Entries Search for: Sign up for the free weekly GraniteGeek email newsletter Check the email updates that you would like:* Concord Monitor Granite Geek Privacy Policy Submit LINKS Return to the Concord Monitor ABOUT GRANITE GEEK Dave Brooks has written a weekly science/tech newspaper column since 1991 – yes, that long – and has written this blog since 2006, keeping an eye on geekish topics in and around the Granite State. He discusses the geek world regularly on WGIR-AM radio, and moderated the monthly Science Cafe NH sessions when they were still a thing. Brooks earned a bachelor’s degree in mathematics but got lost on the way to the Ivory Tower and ended up in a newsroom. He has reported for newspapers from Tennessee to New England. Rummage through his bag of awards you’ll find oddities like three Best Blog prizes from the New Hampshire Press Association and a Writer of the Year award from the N.H. Farm and Forest Bureau, of all places. He joined the Concord Monitor in 2015.
