How to defeat impostor syndrome: confessions of a developerMatteo Bruno
Do you feel like you don't belong, you don't deserve what you achieved, everyone in your office is more talented than you? Do you have imposter syndrome... too?
Imposter syndrome is common across all industries, but the increasing pressure to be successful in IT is taking its toll on employees, affecting more than half workers, me included :)
After many years working in tech for a lot of companies (from startups to big corporations) in many business fields, I found a way to overcome self-doubt and turn this weird feeling in a booster for greater achievements... and I want to share it with you!
Forensics is the practice of using scientific and empirical data to explain the cause of an incident. Forensics can applied to the world of software application management from the context of explaining performance and scalability issues. This workshop is designed to introduce application owners how to troubleshoot performance and/or scalability issues using a core set of open source tools. During last year's BbWorld, our presenter introduced a methodology and a teaser of tools to perform forensics. Since that time a slew of new tools and practices have come out and will be covered. This workshop will run through a series of common case studies often seen in the field affecting performance and/or scalability and will demo a series of tools to explain the causes of the issues. The goal of this session is to dissect performance and a scalability issues end to end from client browser/desktop all the way to the server. Foundations of forensics and the methodology used to tool sets will be covered as well.
Companies are generally very good at protecting themselves against external attacks, but only rarely do they guard themselves against internal attacks. By using what’s known as ‘Social Engineering’, hackers exploit unsuspecting people who in good faith open up their doors to unwanted strangers.
Social engineering, or SE, is the art of manipulating people into performing actions or so they give up confidential information. Social Engineering can mean different things to different people.

DESIGNING INCLUSIVE PRODUCTS
Conférence de Sara Wachter-Boettcher
Même si nos projets commencent toujours avec de très bonnes intentions, on se retrouve souvent avec des produits pilotés par des stéréotypes toxiques qui sont véhiculés dans la culture tech : des balances connectées qui déduisent que tout le monde veut perdre du poids, des formulaires qui ne correspondent pas aux personnes transgenres, des bots lecteurs de curriculum qui désavantagent les femmes,les systèmes de reconnaissance faciale qui n’arrivent pas à identifier les personnes de couleur…
Aujourd’hui, la technologie a pris une place centrale dans le quotidien de nos utilisateurs jusqu’à aller dans le moindre recoin de leur intimité, nous avons notre part de responsabilité par nos décisions lorsque ces produits incluent ou rejettent des utilisateurs. Durant cette keynote, Sara Wachter-Boettcher expliquera comment la culture de l’industrie tech est en train de créer des produits qui exploitent des préjugés, manipulent et blessent des utilisateurs, mais nuisent également à la démocratie. Elle nous présentera également le comportement à adopter pour éviter de créer ce type de produit : comment concevoir des hypothèses dans notre processus de travail, vérifier que les décisions prises autour du produit soient correctes auprès de différents utilisateurs et différentes situations, avoir des discussions avec ses équipes et les entreprises et poursuivre une démarche de conception plus éthique et inclusive pour notre industrie.

Culture eats strategy for lunch? Hah—not this time! Ancestry.com has undergone a significant and rapid transformation to continuous delivery and business agility in less than three years—and they are not done yet. Today, Ancestry has a culture significantly different from what it used to, made possible by the adoption of new practices, tools, organizational changes, management involvement, and dramatic shifts in mindset. Adopting Agile development was the catalyst, but much more had to be mixed in to create their own flavor of DevOps and continuous delivery. This talk will focus on the specific challenges, phases, and actions taken during Ancestry’s cultural metamorphosis. Come listen to how Ancestry has beaten the culture monster so you can too!

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

• everyday objects filled with design issues
• we interact with them deeply, unconsciously, constantly
• typically people blame themselves
• good design is rare but achievable

7. Conceptual Models
People will make sense out of any information you give them
This is bad, because they jump to all kinds of crazy conclusions
But this is also good, because it means they can be easily trained to
understand new technology with the right affordances and signifiers
as cues

Attributions – Unavoidable yet Erroneous
elee2450 Even though I'm an engineer, sometimes I find myself using 'folk
theories' to explain my observations
Julisilva2450 We're taught that causation isn't correlation but I often find
myself assigning causes to events as a means of explanation.
13. TweetReport
Whose fault is it, really?
mmfj2450 I think our society encourages the notion that users (not the
device/designer) are to blame for any errors with technology.
carmichael2450 Maybe it isn't my fault that I can't always use motion sensor
faucets correctly... #ChapterTwo #SystemErrorNotHumanError
mmeehan2450 Thanks to Norman, I no longer have to feel incompetent
when I can't figure out how to use a product -- or do math?
lwidom2450 If only 1 in a billion people has a 'design-based problem' why
can't we call it 'human error?' Norman deflects too much blame.

• Blame is social
• Stages of Action

18. We’re explanatory creatures
• “It’s a virus”
• “It’s my hard drive”
• “It’s a Thursday!”

19. Attribution:
a mental explanation for why
something occurred
• May be conscious or
unconscious
• Articulated or tacit
• Based on mental models and
naïve theories

Superstition is a prime exle of cause-seeking at work.
20. Mental Models
• Built from:
– limited experience
– common knowledge
• Favor temporal proximity in assigning causality
• Particularly poor for novel situations

2. Battery manager says “Twitter” is
consuming 57% of my power
4. [couple of hours later] … Phone still
isn’t charging well

6. I do it.
24. Chapter 1 – The Psychopathology of Everyday Things
So whose fault is it?
25. Blame is comprised of two elements:
The attribution of a physical cause
– Based on mental model of the
technology
Role responsibility
– Based on normative expectations for
competence and appropriate behavior
The Blame Game
QWang2450 Older people tend to blame themselves more when they encounter
technical difficulties. Younger people like blaming designs.
“Now I know what happened”
“Who was supposed to know”
26. I should know They should know
Don’t drop phone in toilet
to update new phone w/
contact phone #’s from old
don’t click on weird links/attachments
to identify “attachments” for people
To type in / not type in a password over the web?
The Blame Game
27. • Blame is a normative
interpretation
• No technically “right”
place to blame
The Blame Game
28. • Can be renegotiated
through cultural change
