In the 1930s, there were six Nobel Prizes awarded: Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature, Peace, and Economics. The most common prize was Physiology or Medicine, often awarded to groups of two or three scientists for collaborative work. The least common prizes were Peace and Literature. By the 1930s, the Nobel Prizes typically honored discoveries rather than recent work. The most famous winner was Jane Addams, who was the only woman to win in the 1930s, receiving the Peace Prize for her work promoting peace and women's rights.

Alfred Nobel invented dynamite and made much of his fortune selling it worldwide. However, after his death a newspaper mistakenly printed a scathing obituary calling him a "merchant of death," which motivated Nobel to establish a prize honoring scientific achievements and work toward peace. The Nobel Prize is now awarded each year in five categories - Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature, and Peace - with each laureate receiving a gold medal, diploma, and monetary award of over $1 million.

Controversy Between the Covers
This document provides a brief history of banned and challenged books from ancient times to the present. It discusses how censorship of written works began as a means of political control but shifted to a focus on morality during the Victorian era in England. The passage of the Comstock Act in 1873 in the United States led to censorship of any literature or art deemed obscene, including birth control information. Court cases in the 1960s tested American laws on pornography and helped establish that books like Henry Miller's Tropic of Cancer were not legally obscene. Libraries continue to face challenges to books but promote freedom of expression and access to information.
Love, Stamps, Science, & Scandal
Presentation given at the Science History Institute in Philadelphia, PA on February 11, 2020. Event description via Institute's website: Love letters almost came between Marie Curie and her second Nobel Prize. In the spring of 1910, several years after her husband’s death, Marie Curie began an affair with the married French physicist Paul Langevin. Just days before the Nobel Committee announced her second Nobel, Langevin’s wife made their love letters public. This scandal threatened Curie’s prize and inspired men to fight multiple duels over her honor.
Join us as we dig into the two love affairs that shaped Curie’s personal life—with Pierre Curie, her husband and scientific partner who died an early and tragic death, and Paul Langevin. Since letters were so important in both courtships, we’ll also look at some postage stamps featuring Marie Curie; her husband, Pierre; and Paul Langevin. Afterward, nerd out over treasures from our Othmer Library, and create a Valentine using historic inks.

Sherlock Holmes
Sherlock Holmes was a character created by Scottish author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Inspired by Doyle's time studying medicine and meeting eccentric patients, Sherlock Holmes first appeared in novels and short stories in the 1880s and 1890s, gaining widespread popularity for his skills in deduction. His address was 221B Baker Street in London and his adversary was Professor Moriarty. Though Doyle killed off the character in 1893, public demand led him to resurrect Holmes in later stories throughout the early 20th century, with Holmes remaining one of the most iconic characters in English literature.
Nobel prize winners
Jane Addams was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1931 for her work leading the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom. Sinclair Lewis won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1930 for his realistic portrayals of characters and ability to use humor. In 1936, Carl D. Anderson won the Nobel Prize in Physics for his discovery of the positron in 1932. Harold C. Urey won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1934 for his discovery of heavy hydrogen.

Robert W. Fogel
Robert Fogel won the Nobel Prize in Economics in 1993 for developing a technique of running large amounts of numerical data through computers to draw conclusions. He applied this method in his book Time on the Cross, where he argued that slaves in the American South were treated better economically than free industrial workers in the North. However, historians criticized this idea because he overlooked the psychological impact of slavery. Currently, Fogel believes that liberals should stop complaining about economic inequality if poor people today have access to similar amenities as the rich.

Social Change After World War I
Radio was an early example of mass media, linking people over long distances. Here, an invalid woman uses radio to keep in touch with events in the outside world.
The catastrophe of World War I shattered the sense of optimism that had grown in the West since the Enlightenment. Despair gripped survivors on both sides as they added up the staggering costs of the war. Europeans mourned a generation of young men who had been lost on the battlefields.
Many people talked about a “return to normalcy,” to life as it had been before 1914. But rebellious young people rejected the moral values and rules of the Victorian Age and chased after excitement. Gertrude Stein, an American writer living in Paris, called them the “lost generation.” Others saw them as immoral pleasure-seekers.
The Roaring Twenties During the 1920s, new technologies helped create a mass culture shared by millions in the world’s developed countries. Affordable cars, improved telephones, and new forms of media such as motion pictures and radio brought people around the world closer together than ever before.
Duke Ellington was a composer, pianist, and bandleader. He referred to his music as "American Music" rather than "jazz." His career spanned the 1920s to the 1970s.
In the 1920s, many radios tuned into the new sounds of jazz. In fact, the decade in the West is often called the Jazz Age. African American musicians combined Western harmonies with African rhythms to create jazz. Jazz musicians, like trumpeter Louis Armstrong and pianist Duke Ellington, took simple melodies and improvised endless subtle variations in rhythm and beat.
Throughout the 1920s, the popularity of jazz moved from the United States to Europe. Europeans embraced American popular culture, with its greater freedom and willingness to experiment. The nightclub and jazz were symbols of that freedom. Jazz came to embody the universal themes of creativity and self-expression.
Much of today’s popular music has been influenced by jazz. It has transcended the "Roaring Twenties" American culture to become an international musical language.
After the war, rebellious young people, disillusioned by the war, rejected the moral values and rules of the Victorian Age and chased after excitement. During the Jazz Age, this rebellion was exemplified by a new type of liberated young woman called the flapper. The first flappers were American, but their European sisters soon adopted the fashion. Flappers rejected old ways in favor of new, exciting freedoms.
The Flapper awoke from her lethargy (tiredness) ... bobbed her hair, put on her choicest pair of earrings and a great deal of audacity (boldness) and rouge and went into battle. She flirted because it was fun to flirt and ... refused to be bored chiefly because she wasn't boring ... Mothers disapproved of their sons taking the Flapper to dances, to teas, to swim, and most of all to heart.
—Zelda Fitzgerald, flapper and wife of author F. Scott Fitzge.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
