Dispute over grain exports, possibility of early agreement between Ukraine and Russia

Following talks in Istanbul, the United Nations and Turkey have said that a final agreement on grain exports between Russia and Ukraine could be reached next week.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres says negotiators from Russia and Ukraine could reach a formal agreement by next week on the delivery of grain exports via the Black Sea. It should be noted that delegations from Russia, Turkey, Ukraine and the United Nations had discussed the issue in Istanbul yesterday.

Antonio Guterres said the war in Ukraine had left millions of tons of grain stranded, which was agreed to be sent to world markets, and Russia should be allowed to send grain and fertilizer. Fertilizer prices have also risen sharply due to global sanctions on Russia, which has further impacted rising food prices. Hosts of the talks, Turkish Defense Minister Holosi Akar, said the two sides had agreed on ways to ensure joint control of ports and security of grain transit routes across the Black Sea.

An estimated 20 million tons of grain are currently stored in Ukraine. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) says the war in Ukraine is threatening food supplies to many developing countries and has led to a sharp rise in global food prices. With more than 180 million people already starving, the crisis could worsen the situation.

Ukraine and Russia have planted hundreds of landmines around the Black Sea. Ukraine has refused to remove landmines amid fears that Russia could launch more attacks on its cities. The United Nations has suggested that grain be transported through safe corridors, avoiding landmines.

 A new governmental order will require virtual private networks to store user data for a minimum of five years. This is new national directive of the country's IT emergency response team, called. Photo by Kevin Paster: Pexel This is a policy that is probably going to make life harder for VPN businesses and VPN users. CERT-in announced on Thursday that the VPN companies of the country will have to keep the names of the clients, the physical and IP addresses validated, the habits of use and other forms of personal information. If the customer cancels their subscription or deletes their account, their information will always be stored in the company's servers according to the directive. Those who fail to do so could face up to one year in prison under the applicable law cited in the new directive. The directive does not stop at VPN providers.Data centres and cloud-based providers are listed in the same provision. India has a long tradition of putting the heavy hand to online activ

Brutal crackdown by the government could not deter people from coming out of their homes and heading towards Islamabad

-
 The government’s crackdown on PTI workers and supporters made it clear that they have decided to stop PTI’s Independence March at all cost. News reports say more than 1,000 PTO workers and activists have been arrested.  The government has called in the Rangers to maintain law and order in Islamabad and other major cities of the country, including Karachi. All entrances and exits to and from Islamabad were shut down, as was traffic between Lahore and the Twin Cities. The government has also instructed transport companies not to offer buses, cars, or vans to PTI workers. The manner in which Shahbaz and its allies are using state apparatus to prevent people from participating in the march is not acceptable.  The #WeAreComingKaptaan hashtag tells us that brutal crackdown by the government could not deter people from coming out of their homes and heading towards Islamabad.  Look what this government is doing spreading broken glasses on the road.

Everything you need to know about DDR5

 DDR4 memory is found on most personal computers. The next generation memory standard is coming out. Computers users expect increased performance and optimal power consumption  in the new chips.  If we focus on raw data, the main changes include a reduction in the voltage from 1.2V to 1.1V, and the 8n prefetch buffer will be replaced by 16n prefetch buffers, i.e. 16 bits per hour will migrate from memory cells to the IO buffer, while performance will be scaled from 3.2 Gbps to 6.4 Gbps per I/O connection. We can expect increased performance as some memory makers  have managed to enhance JEDEC specifications for DDR4.  The design of the DDR5 memory modules is based on 288 needles. The application of DDR5 will requires a new platform.  The DIMM has been divided into two channels. A memory module offers two 32-bit channels, of which there will be twice 40 bits with ECC. Between 8 bytes to 16 bytes the minimum stroke length varies. Sense a module uses two channels, it means it can double t
