The federal government’s pandemic border measures — including random testing for vaccinated travellers — could be coming to an end soon. It still might not be soon enough for many travellers and tourism operators.

“Now you just opened this the last time I was there, explain to us what you’ve got in the show,” James asked.

Jim replied: “We do all local produce, we’re supported by a lot of great producers.

“We go to a lot of great restaurants and we sell a lot of their produce in the shop as well.”

“How fantastic is that,” James concluded. “Best of luck with everything, hope to see you again soon.”

Having trouble deciding what to watch on Netflix? Well, now there’s a button for that.

The streamer is rolling out a new “Shuffle Play” button on smart TVs equipped with the Netflix app, according to our sister site Variety. When pressed, the button will start a random movie or TV show that corresponds to the user’s recommendations or are similar to titles the user has watched in the past. The button can be found either underneath the profile row in the startup screen, on the home screen of a user’s profile or on the TV menu sidebar.

“The purpose of the test is to make it easier for members to find something to watch,” a Netflix spokesperson tells Variety, adding that the streamer aims to roll out a permanent “shuffle” feature to all users at some point: “The hope is to absolutely productize something.”

Last year, Netflix tested a “Random Episode” button that allowed users to choose to watch a random episode of their favorite TV shows, rather than having to choose a specific episode manually. The button was only available to Android users, however, and still hasn’t been rolled out to all Netflix users.

Would you roll the dice and hit “Shuffle Play” to let Netflix pick your next movie or TV show? Hit the comments and share your thoughts.

One of the near-term (but somewhat irrelevant) goals of quantum computing is something called quantum supremacy. Quantum supremacy is not, sadly, a cage fight between proponents of competing interpretations of quantum mechanics. It is a demonstration of a quantum computer performing a computation, no matter how trivial, that cannot be performed on a classical computer.

The key question: what computation should be performed? A team of researchers is suggesting that computing the state of a random quantum circuit that exhibits chaotic behavior would be perfect for the task. Let’s delve into why that might be.

Getting all superior

The idea of quantum supremacy goes a bit like this. Yes, we have all of these different versions of quantum computing. And yes, they all seem to behave how we expect a quantum computer to behave. But they are all remarkably slow and can easily be beaten by classical computers.

  • #Randomcoffee is an initiative that pairs employees from different departments of the same company together, to meet over a cup of coffee. 
  • It allows people to gain new insight into the workings of other departments and bring new perspectives to problems.
  • The majority of employees want to establish a friendship with their colleagues, and a #randomcoffee provides an opening. 

LinkedIn Influencer Ryan Holmes published this post originally on LinkedIn.

Is it possible that a few bucks spent on a cup of coffee could change the culture of a whole company?

Well, maybe.

For the past year, my company has been trying something we call #randomcoffee. Employees from different departments are matched up — blind-date style — to get to know one another over a cup of coffee (or beverage of choice). So far, more than 1,000 people have signed up, and 2,000 new introductions have been made over coffee.

Why does this matter? Anyone who’s worked in a big company knows that, despite best efforts, invisible walls end up going up between teams and departments. Sales and marketing might as well be on different planets sometimes, for example. You work closely with a small group of coworkers and most everybody else is, well, just a face you pass in the hallway.

All of which, of course, is terrible … on so many levels. Coordination breaks down. Information gaps develop. Customers get a disjointed experience. Culture suffers. Not to mention, you miss the chance to meet some really interesting people.

When we were a startup, this wasn’t an issue: We all worked in the same room. But in a short span, we grew to nearly 1,000 employees in almost a dozen offices around the world. Luckily, a group of our early employees saw a threat to our culture … and opted to do something. Taking a cue from programs like Ten Thousand Coffees, Mixer and Innovate Brew, they decided to see if coffee could succeed in bringing Hootsuite’s employees together.

Designing a #randomcoffee program

#randomcoffee started out, as most initiatives do, with a Google spreadsheet and a bunch of emails. Eventually, 128 people signed up for their first coffee encounter with a random colleague. We wrote a quick-and-dirty algorithm to ensure each pairing brought together people from a different department, then blasted out emails to the lucky duos. (Check out this post by Noel Pullen for all the nitty gritty details.)

And … it worked. As the first wave of meetings unfolded, people started sharing selfies on Facebook and stories around the office. Participants gained new insight into the workings of other departments. People realized they faced common issues and brought new perspectives to problems. Ideas for future collaborations and projects took root. It was assisted serendipity in action.

On a personal level, for example, I met up with a training consultant who had just joined the company. When I mentioned I was thinking about starting my own weekly newsletter to stay in touch with employees, she did me one better. Her former boss at Apple, she explained, had sent out weekly video updates, with great engagement. I was hooked and have been doing videos ever since.

Most importantly, though, it was fun. Feedback was overwhelmingly positive. Everyone asked when the next #randomcoffee would be.

Adding some tech magic (and a cool website)

Being a software company (Hootsuite is a social media management platform), we decided to take things to the next level. During one of our hackathons — company-wide programming marathons, where we explore new ideas and passion projects — one team poured its energy into developing a working #randomcoffee website. The goal was to automate the process of matching coffee partners, making it as easy as signing up for a newsletter.

Just as important, we wanted to find a way to roll this out to other companies so they could experience the team-building power of a little caffeine. We built a basic tool, and in the intervening months evolved it out with more features.

Eventually, this evolved — thanks to a real labor of love by our senior director of software development, Ken Britton — into randomcoffee.me: a site where people from any company can pair up with one of their own co-workers for a cup of joe.  

The process is pretty straightforward. Once a company is registered, employees sign up on the site using their company email address. They then get an invitation email that asks for pertinent info: name, department, location, even an “icebreaker URL” (like a link to a LinkedIn profile or personal website). Once a month (or at a desired frequency), the algorithm matches up pairs and alerts them via email, in a message with some basic tips and instructions. Then, it’s up to the recipients to follow through and set a date and time to meet with their partners. Ideally, all of this ends with a selfie and a quick post on social media to share with colleagues.

So far, hundreds of different companies have tried it out, including multinationals from around the world. For businesses with a global workforce, it’s even possible to pair team members in the same department but in different locations for a virtual coffee. You can also indicate whether the company is footing the bill or if you’re just playing matchmaker.

The level of enthusiasm has been eye-opening. What I’ve learned is that employees genuinely want to get to know their colleagues better, and it turns out a simple cup of coffee (helped along by a little technology) can provide the opening. It’s the kind of growth and culture hack that costs almost nothing and pays immediate returns — in terms not just of cross-departmental cooperation but overall morale.  

We’re already looking for ways to make the experience better. Possibilities include developing a calendar-matching feature and adding in options for #randomcocktails or #randomlunches (with four or more people).

All of this might sound frivolous, but I’d argue that it’s exactly the opposite. Social technologies have transformed our personal lives in the last decade, enabling a kind of intimacy and collaboration hard to imagine before. Ever so slowly, that same spirit — applying technology to bring people closer in real life — is finding its way inside company walls. Ultimately, human connection is what distinguishes great companies from ordinary ones. #randomcoffee is one small way to build those bonds, with help from a little tech and a little caffeine.

In 2016, ProPublica caused a stir when it evaluated the performance of software that’s used in criminal justice proceedings. The software, which is used to evaluate a defendant’s chance of committing further crimes, turned out to produce different results when evaluating black people and caucasians.

The significance of that discrepancy is still the subject of some debate, but two Dartmouth College researchers have asked a more fundamental question: is the software any good? The answer they came up with is “not especially,” as its performance could be matched by recruiting people on Mechanical Turk, or performing a simple analysis that only took two factors into account.

Software and bias

The software in question is called COMPAS, for Correctional Offender Management Profiling for Alternative Sanctions. It takes into account a wide variety of factors about defendants, and uses them to evaluate whether those individuals are likely to commit additional crimes and helps identify intervention options. COMPAS is heavily integrated into the judicial process (see this document from the California Department of Corrections for a sense of its importance). Perhaps most significantly, however, it is sometimes influential in determining sentencing, which can be based on the idea that people who are likely to commit additional crimes should be incarcerated longer.

ABC’s Designated Survivor closed the first half of its sophomore season by dealing President Tom Kirkman his most devastating, soul-crushing blow to date, in a tragic twist that has been on the books since last spring.

As this week’s episode neared its end, First Lady Alex (played by Natascha McElhone) brilliantly torpedoed Forstell’s investigation into the bribery allegations made against her, by making an opening statement — on the public record — in which she disclosed that the FBI Director’s fishing expedition coincided with his ramp-up for a senate run. Found out, Forstell promptly shut down the proceedings, giving Alex a big win…

…to be followed by a big loss, when on her way home from the FBI headquarters her Secret Service transport was T-boned by a truck, Michael Vaughn-style. Cut to President Kirkman (Kiefer Sutherland), who was at a hospital checking in on a newborn’s risky surgery, receiving a call about the accident. POTUS dropped his phone and crumbled to his knees, wailing as Secret Service agents rushed to his side.

TVLine spoke with Designated Survivor showrunner Keith Eisner about the when and why of this storyline decision.

TVLINE | It was May 14 when Kiefer was at the ABC Upfronts already teasing this “midseason event.” Was it as far back as then that you knew Natascha McElhone was leaving?
Yeah, we had been thinking about this moment for a very long time. It was a long time in the making and it leads us into sort of uncharted territory for a television show — which is a president [of the United States] who’s a widower and is basically home alone, raising two kids on his own. The most powerful person on Earth is now by himself [as a parent]. We find that very exciting as writers, to plot that surprising and unusual course.
