WordCamp Nashville 2015: Agile Contracts for WordPress Consultantsmtoppa
When you develop a WordPress based project for a client in an Agile way, you deliver working features on a frequent basis, such as weekly, as you build out the project. This allows for review, feedback, and adapting to change. Evolving business requirements are welcome in an Agile process, instead of a source of frustration.
The problem is, even if clients think an Agile approach sounds good, they almost always have a preference for traditional Fixed Price, Fixed Scope contracts. These contracts, with detailed specifications, costs, and delivery dates, contradict the Agile approach, but they provide clients them with a sense of security and confidence that they will get what they want.
How do you convince them a traditional contract is actually riskier than they think, and persuade them to instead sign a contract that facilities Agile development? This is the most significant challenge facing consultants who want to follow Agile practices. At PromptWorks we use Time & Materials contracts with our clients, and we have signed over 30 of them in the past 2 years. In this talk we’ll discuss:
* What different types of contracts imply about the nature of the relationship with your client, and what it means for it to be a professional relationship of equals. Risk and reward should be shared, and the relationship should feel like a partnership.
* The persuasion and negotiation process for getting your prospective clients to sign a Time & Materials contract. We’ll discuss real-life situations from our experience at PromptWorks.
* PromptWorks’ typical project proposal, Master Service Agreement, and Scope of Work documents. We’ll highlight key aspects of our approach, and things to look out for if you have to use contract documents provided by your client.
Dimitris will go through a very interesting topic on how publishing velocity can contribute to SEO.
How you can build a blog and a solid content plan from scratch and using extensive KW research and KW clustering, quick solutions (external & internal writers, stock images website & Canva for editing them) and drive 1,000,000+ organic visits per month in 11 months purely non-branded.
Using publishing velocity (delivering more than 80 articles per month) can close the big gap between your website and your main search competitors that have been doing this for years while at the same time you increase your search potential dramatically.
How to tell a better story (in code)(final)Bonnie Pan
To tell a better story in code, start with knowing your audience, use ubiquitous languages in your code so that no translation is needed for your audience.
Apply visual design principles to identify code smells and organize the layout in a way to strengthen the communication.
Start from there then practice often by refactoring.
The truth is there are never shortcuts to tell a better story in life or in code, practice practice practice by refactoring we will make our code tell a better story.
Let’s opt in better software for our future selves and others. Let’s make our code accessible for those who are interested in our code. Let’s invite our audience to our story in code.
In March 2020, the corona pandemic hit Norway, and the country went into lockdown. Suddenly, everyone wanted to get started with video calls.
The little startup Confrere, which made video calls for the healthcare industry, grew their customer base by 10 times in two weeks, and the number of calls by 100 in two weeks. Suddenly, the company had become de facto national infrastructure, as 96 percent of the video calls in the Norwegian healthcare sector went through their platform. How was that even possible? A lot of it was because of content.
In this session, you’ll learn how:
* The core model helps craft content that is relevant for customers, even when context shifts vastly.
* User research, sales, and customer service can work together to create content that answers users’ questions while being aligned on goals.
* Focusing on localization from day one can prepare you for growth.
* Sometimes it’s okay to leave some questions to a bot, rather than a human.
Agile Gurugram 2019 Conferecne | A "Quality" Debate - Rethinking the mindset ...AgileNetwork
Session Title : A "Quality" Debate - Rethinking the mindset for non-negotiable Quality in Software Products
Session Overview : One of the key reasons for embracing agility is faster feedback which helps improve the perceived quality of a software product. And every team is focused towards delivering quality, no one wakes up in the morning with an idea to introduce defects, we naturally ideate to solve problems. Unknowingly though, dysfunctions always creep in and identifying a dysfunction is extremely difficult especially when you are a part of the dysfunction.
In this 45 min talk, discussion is about the importance of quality and how it's no longer negotiable even if Project Management principles tell us otherwise. Stories from past experience, and from organisations ranging from GM to Mumbai Dabbawalas that have embraced the "Quality is not Negotiable" principle and seen the difference.
I present the context of defect severity and how these may create an illusion of quality; how accountability of a single person (e.g.: Product Owner) may result in a "Lack of Commitment" dysfunction; and how cost is not really proportional to quality especially when it comes to delivering virtual products and services related to it.

Deep Representation: Building a Semantic Image Search EngineC4Media
Video and slides synchronized, mp3 and slide download available at URL https://bit.ly/2PokOPm.
Emmanuel Ameisen gives a step by step tutorial on how to build a semantic search engine for text and images, with code included. The approaches presented extend naturally to other applications such as image and video captioning, reading text from videos, selecting optimal thumbnails and generating code from sketches of websites and more. Filmed at qconsf.com.
Emmanuel Ameisen is the Head of AI at Insight Data Science. He has years of experience going from product ideation to effective implementations. At Insight, he has led over a hundred AI projects from ideation to finished product in a variety of domains including Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing, and Speech Processing.
There’s a huge disconnect between the business world and the engineering world that drives our software projects into the ground. We rewrite our software over and over again, not because we lack the engineering skills to build great software, but because we fail to communicate, make decisions in ignorance, and don’t adapt when our current strategy is obviously failing.
What if we could measure the indirect costs of pain building up on a software project? What if we could measure the loss of productivity, the escalating costs and risks, and could steer our projects with a data-driven feedback loop?
Visibility changes everything. With visibility, we can bridge the gap between the business world and the engineering world, and get everyone pulling the same direction.
Find out how you can:
1. Identify the biggest causes of productivity loss on your software project
2. Translate the world of developer pain into explicit costs and risks
3. Collaborate with other industry professionals in the art of data-driven software mastery
Let's break down the challenges and learn our way to success, one small victory at a time.
Speaker: Janelle Klein
Janelle is a NFJS Tour Speaker and author of the book, Idea Flow: How to Measure the PAIN in Software Development: a modern strategy for systematically optimizing software productivity with a data-driven feedback loop.
Many teams may have a front end developer among their ranks, but besides a title or area of responsibility, it can be difficult to pinpoint the exact craft of front end development. Expertise in web technologies is a good start, but we can't forget the users we actually build for. This talk will examine the impact of the front end on User Experience. I'll talk about how becoming more fluent across more UX concerns like content and user research can help front enders make better decisions, can bring more clarity to our craft, and result in building better experiences for our users.

Bringing Change to Life | YOW 2016 | Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney - AustraliaBill Scott
This talk was given at YOW 2016 in Melbourne, Brisbane & Sydney Australia, December 2016.
Change in an organization is really hard. This is especially true when a company that was once on the forefront of innovation finds itself having lost that luster through its own growth & success. The past few years there has been a transformation happening at PayPal that is touching every part of the organization to make it innovative again. At the heart of this change is engineering innovation coupled with a new, close partnership between product, design and engineering.
Can your organization be changed? From Bill’s experience at Yahoo!, Netflix, PayPal and consulting with numerous companies he believes there are some core principles you can employ to drive transformation that are all centered around the customer. The question Bill will explore is “How can engineering and design be the catalyst for that change?” While this talk will be inspirational, it will take an honest (and humorous) look at what has worked and what hasn’t worked so well in trying to scale change.
RecSysOps: Best Practices for Operating a Large-Scale Recommender SystemEhsan38
Ensuring the health of a modern large-scale recommendation system is a very challenging problem. To address this, we need to put in place proper logging, sophisticated exploration policies, develop ML-interpretability tools or even train new ML models to predict/detect issues of the main production model. In this talk, we shine a light on this less-discussed but important area and share some of the best practices, called RecSysOps, that we’ve learned while operating our increasingly complex recommender systems at Netflix. RecSysOps is a set of best practices for identifying issues and gaps as well as diagnosing and resolving them in a large-scale machine-learned recommender system. RecSysOps helped us to 1) reduce production issues and 2) increase recommendation quality by identifying areas of improvement and 3) make it possible to bring new innovations faster to our members by enabling us to spend more of our time on new innovations and less on debugging and firefighting issues.

Da Vinci Project Phase 2 BUS 425
The idea behind this project is to make sure you have the necessary understanding of how facilities layout and design works. With that in mind, we will take the product you researched and decide what is the best type of facility to use to build it.
You will define and analyze your product category (B2B, B2C, B2G, etc.). You will also analyze products, processes, people, and the product development cycle to fully understand how each intergrates together. You have to understand your supply chain, your customers, your production facilities, and your building plan in order to fully integrate each into the plan.
So, what will you deliver?

2. What type of facility is appropriate for our product?
2.1. Why?
2.2. What criteria was used?
2.3. Be sure to tell me about the specifications of the product/project as well as how each part fits together. Develop the warehousing, manufacturing, and support processes fully.
3. Which process? (Project, Job Shop, Flow Shop, Continuous flow)
3.1. Why?
3.2. What criteria?
3.2.1. Be sure to include the product life cycle in your analysis.
4. What are the sources of materials?

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Smart TV Buyer Insights Survey 2024 by 91mobiles.pdf91mobiles
91mobiles recently conducted a Smart TV Buyer Insights Survey in which we asked over 3,000 respondents about the TV they own, aspects they look at on a new TV, and their TV buying preferences.
Threats to mobile devices are more prevalent and increasing in scope and complexity. Users of mobile devices desire to take full advantage of the features
available on those devices, but many of the features provide convenience and capability but sacrifice security. This best practices guide outlines steps the users can take to better protect personal devices and information.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
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.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
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.

People are reading article pieces that are interesting to them.
So if we present more related articles to them, we can generate even more traffic.
And that, just by taking advantage of the traffic generated by the website alone!
9. What makes an article interesting? (part#1)
“It is interesting to me”
I usually read these articles.
These articles are from a specific
category.
Ok, we can present you with more from
the same category.
“It is interesting to people that
have the same interests as me”
I have a specific behaviour.
But, this matches to the behaviour of
others.
Ok, we’ll present you with articles that
they are reading!
10. What makes an article interesting? (part#2)
“The article categories I usually
read have a high correlation with
articles from another category”
I am usually reading these categories.
Oh wait, these categories have high
similarity with these! (based on user data)
We’ll present you with articles from these
categories!
“The articles I usually read are
heavily correlated with some
other articles”
I usually read these articles.
Oh wait, the ones you are reading are
related with these! (based on text
similarity)
We’ll present you with these, no problem!
11. What makes an article interesting? (part#3)
“Usually on this time of day,
people are reading articles
coming from these categories”
It is noon and everyone is getting hungry!
So everyone is reading about recipes &
restaurants.
And we know about it!
We’ll show you some of them!
“These are trending now!”
The social media API(s) are out there.
We can get frequently posted hashtags.
Can we get related articles? (based on
text similarity)
Great, we’ll present you with these!
22. We have to start
from somewhere!
Can we identify the product/ingredient involved?
What about the hazard?
Let’s employ some vocabulary specific text-mining!
24. Company
Identification
Now we need to identify the company involved in the recall.
Let’s employ some NER!
But how can we also get the relationship between companies (eg. one is a subsidiary of
another)?
This sounds like a graph problem!
26. Brand
Identification
Ok, so far so good, but what was the product-brand behind the recall?
And more importantly, how can we identify it?
There are open-datasets out there! Let’s take advantage of them!
28. Misc Info
Identification
If we also had the date, LOT number & brand size that would be great!
Ok, some data source specific parsers should be employed!
35. Enough with food recalls!
They are scary!
(and we are having pizza soon!)
Let’s switch to text aggregation!
36. deliverynews.gr
The Idea
And now time for a side-project
We know how to handle text data
Collect from a variety of sources
Employ ML/DL techniques to identify important terms
37. deliverynews.gr
The Idea
Can we put it into practise to collect news-articles announced (currently) within Greece?
And identify stuff?
And present them?
And all of this, fully automated, without manual-labor!
45. Article
Deduplication
Text similarity matrices are here!
But then again, some intuitive rules can be
applied!
(within period of time & talk about roughly
the same thing)
Cosine Similarity on Title: 82%
Cosine Similarity on Body: 75%
51. The More Data the
Better
The RecSys got better the more it was deployed
FOODAKAI’s internal workflows got better with more recalls
deliverynews.gr is getting bigger and better with more data sources
