La parola resilienza dovrebbe entrare a tutta forza nel campo delle parole importanti, tuttavia contro il suo uso corretto sta l'abuso “tutti dicono My city is resilient”, resilienza è diventata una parola d'ordine (buzzword1), così smorzandone significatività e potenzialità di strumento operativo.
Quando usiamo una parola, in effetti, dovremmo sempre chiederci che cosa significa quella parola per noi e per gli altri, che cosa vogliamo dire, perché l'abbiamo scelta al posto di altre parole.

BUILDING HOPE
Positive Psychology, a new branch of psychology focused on the empirical study of such things as positive emotions, strengths-based character, and healthy institutions. This emerging field offers guidance on how to feel more satisfied and engaged with life, regardless of one’s circumstances. Nineteen different scientifically-validated questionnaires on everything from love, compassion, grit and gratitude are building a robust body of data about what makes people happy and resilient.
What is hope? Hope is:
• a belief in a positive outcome related to events and circumstances in one's life
• A feeling that what you want is achievable and that events will turn out for the best.
Happiness, on the other hand, is a state of mind or feeling characterized by contentment, love, satisfaction, pleasure, or joy. Hope is about the future and happiness is about the present. You could say that people aspire to want hope and have happiness. To put it another way, hope is a means to having happiness.

In 1972, Limits to Growth shocked the world and forever changed the

The book went on to sell millions of copies and ignited a firestorm of

wars for resources and human-induced climate change.
This substantially revised, expanded and updated edition follows on from
Limits to Growth and its sequel Beyond the Limits, which raised the
alarm that we have already overshot the planet’s carrying capacity.
Marshalling a vast array of new, hard data and more powerful computer

Similar to 50 years visions of the next space generation. Study presented by Bee Thakore, representing SGAC (20)
The Industrial Internet of Things has the potential to drive productivity by $33 Trillion by 2026. The global clean technology sector has a significant opportunity to respond to climate change needs and capture this value as new sensors, services and cities adopt cleaner sources of energy and improve existing ones. This talk was presented as the opening keynote of the Global Cleantech summit in Cambridge in June 2017.
There has been much made out of the far reaching impacts of the Internet of Things (IoT) across cities, healthcare, industry 4.0 and more. The first wave of IoT has led to strong experimentation, with now IoT being discussed in around 50% companies on a weekly basis. So, how can you grow and scale these pilots beyond R&D - what should you consider as you look to fast-track your IoT?

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
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!

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

The Message
8 things the next generation wants the
space world to consider
Improvement of communication (and IT) infrastructure, bringing
information and education to even the farthest villages
Develop technology to use the ores & energy sources available
beyond the Earth: A NEW MANHATTAN PROJECT IS NEEDED
The search for outer planets with life should continue
Greater involvement and participation of women
More effort needs to be given to collaborative NEO Tracking
initiatives
Formalization and passage of a space code of conduct and the
drafting of an international declaration of human intent to
establish a peaceful space faring civilization.
Set up of an international moon/mars base with operations similar
to the ISS
Improvement of rapid response on disasters: Earth based/space
based, especially for ‘developing’ or ‘third world countries’ which
do not have indigenous tools
15. Some unique responses
“You cannot ‘cure’ poverty with a satellite!”
A demonstration of space solar power as a means for
providing electricity to remote and underdeveloped parts
of the world can be perhaps be demonstrated by 2015
Poverty can solve itself. It is a matter of political willpower
to invest in money and people to redistribute store to the
poor; Partners in health in Rwanda.
I can solve the energy problem. My machine can…
Earth observation satellites can be used to improve
agriculture and severe weather preparedness/response.
Additionally, it can be used to track deforestation and
climate change
Cheaper access to space: a functioning space elevator,
heavy lift vehicle, RLV, Lunar governance, Moon-Mars
bases/colonization
Enhance space research - space based vaccines in an
isolated environment (a drug to cure AIDS)?
