Talk at WordCamp Norway 2012 about how to create a native app with WordPress as a datasource.
Going into the XML-RPC, JSON plugins and how to manage the data in the backend.
The example had to be removed because of the company I worked for. Don't know why but as a result a smaller presentation.
My Beginners Perl tutorial, much abbreviated and as presented at the London Perl Workshop on Dec 1st 2007.
Also includes the section on Regular Expressions that we didn't have time for on the day.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

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.
2. #TargetXSummit
Agenda
Things I’m going to talk about
● Introduction
● Our Problem
● Our Thought Process
● Our Solution
● Demo
● What We Still Need to Figure Out
● Q&A
3. #TargetXSummit
Hello!!
● I am Jen Perlee
● Certified Advanced Salesforce Administrator (just passed my exam last month)
● Champlain College (more about that on the next slide)
● 24 years in IT @ Champlain
● 3 years as a Salesforce Admin
4. A Little About Champlain College
● Founded in 1878, Champlain College® is a small, not-for-profit, private college
overlooking Lake Champlain and Burlington, Vermont, with additional
campuses in Montreal, Canada, and Dublin, Ireland.
● 29 Traditional on-campus Undergraduate Degrees
● 66 100% Online Certificate Programs, Associates, Bachelors and Masters
Degrees.
5. Our Salesforce Target -X Story
● Started out with our own custom Salesforce Implementation
● Quickly out grew our resources
● Have been live on Target-X since April 2017
● Started w/ our online division
● Traditional Undergrad went live w/ Inquiry in January
● Go Live w/ Applicants 8/1 (using Target-X, CommonApp & Fire Engine Red)
● Online Retention will soft-lauch on Thursday
6. #TargetXSummit
Our Problem
● Receive List from ~10 different sources (SAT, ACT, Raiseme, Royall etc)
● This doesn’t even include web inquires, phone call, e-mails
● We knew we were going to import duplicates lots of duplicates
● Duplicates are more than annoying
● They cost money (data storage, e-mail usage, manpower)
● Lead to inaccurate reporting
● Poor customer experience
● They are a time suck
7. #TargetXSummit
Thought Process
● Dupe clean-up: Allow duplicates to be created and clean-up after
● VS.
● Dupe Prevention: Append data to existing records so duplicate is never created
● We wanted to avoid as many duplicates BEFORE they came into Target-X
● Nothing will ever 100% stop duplicates but we wanted to strive for as close to 100%
● Brainstormed ideas
● Looked into buying tools
● Needed to be mostly automated
● Needed to include solutions for all data entry points
8. #TargetXSummit
Solution
● Tools we ended up using:
● Demand tools Find/Report IDs
● Demand tools Job Builder
● Basic Powershell and Batch scripts
● Informatica
● Special shout-out to the Target-X Forums and Especially Fiona Kelly from St. Martin University
for getting me started using tools we already have.
● Why?
● ‘Free’
● Low Overhead
● Relatively easy to implement
9. #TargetXSummit
High-Level Steps
● Get data to our Informatica server (secure FTP and Encrypt the files)
● Use JobBuilder to automate…..
● Run a script that checks the header against a known good header and send an e-mail if they
do not match
● Use D/T Find/Report IDs to find contacts base on a tiered approach
● Use the result of that file to import data with the found IDs using Informatica Uniquie IDs
● Run a Script that e-mails if there are multiple matches found
● Fix any multiple matches and re-import

Still to figure out/improve
● Duplicates in the same file
● Better way to automate/fix current duplicates
● Validty – What does this mean
