Can 40 million caregivers count on you?
Where can I find reliable help with meals and medications? What does this bill mean, and will my insurance cover it? And how can I help Mom and Dad stay safe and healthy? As people live longer lives, questions like these touch us all. According to the 2015 report “Caregiving in the U.S.,” an AARP and National Alliance for Caregiving study, nearly 40 million Americans in 2014 were providing unpaid care to people who are older, disabled, or otherwise in need of assistance. A quarter were millennials and half were under the age of 50. Some call it “informal” care, but there’s nothing informal about the emotional, financial and day-to-day stress such a role can involve or the growing gap between the number of caregivers and the number of care recipients. By 2020, 117 million Americans are expected to need assistance of some kind, yet the overall number of caregivers is only expected to reach 45 million.

MGI: From poverty to empowerment: India’s imperative for jobs, growth, and ef...McKinsey & Company
Some 680 million people, or 56% of India, live below MGI’s Empowerment Line and lack acceptable minimum standards of living; the Empowerment Gap is 4% of GDP in value terms (about 7 times the official poverty gap)
From 2005 to 2012, 75% of the improvement in living standards was due to rising incomes, the rest due to government spending; to reduce the gap faster, India needs more productive jobs and higher effectiveness of government spending (e.g., 85 million people below the official poverty line could have been lifted to minimum living standards just by improving delivery of public services)
Almost 40% of the Empowerment Gap comes from health care, drinking water and sanitation; in addition, hunger is a major issue for the poorest segments, and housing for the urban vulnerable
Apart from lacking the means, Indians also lack access to 46% of the basic services they need, with significant variations in the pattern of access deprivation across districts
A path of Stalled Reforms would leave 36% of India below the Empowerment Line and 12% below the Poverty Line in 2022, but the path of Inclusive Reforms can bring these down to 7% and 1% respectively – while achieving fiscal consolidation and reducing access deficit in basic services to 17%, from 46% currently. Raising government spending on subsidies alone delivers just 8% of the total impact. 4 themes are critical
Non-farm jobs deliver >50% of impact; 115 million jobs are needed (38 million more than Stalled Reforms) through 6 broad-ranging reforms and investments in 70-100 job creation engines
Agricultural yield growth delivers ~20% of impact, needing 9 farm sector initiatives and investment rebalancing towards rural infrastructure, research and extension
Public spending on basic services should grow at 7% p.a. in real terms and share of health, water and sanitation to rise from 20% to nearly 50%
Government spending effectiveness must improve from 50% to 75%, by working with private and social sector, community involvement and tight monitoring using technology
Six themes are essential to improve governance across the board (raise institutional capacity and strengthen external accountability)
We focus on finding new ways to apply technology and invention to create a positive and lasting impact for people and communities.

Ericsson ConsumerLab: Smartphone Usage Experience ReportEricsson
For more from the ConsumerLab visit: http://www.ericsson.com/thinkingahead/consumerlab
Having access to an internet connection has become an integrated part of everyday life. Each day, around 40 percent of smartphone owners use their smartphones before they have
even got out of bed. On the morning commute, data usage peaks at nearly 70 percent and remains high throughout the day, with users accessing the network in short and frequent bursts.
For the purpose of this report, Ericsson ConsumerLab conducted surveys across Finland, Switzerland and the Netherlands. Consumers were asked to discuss their
perception of network quality, including current satisfaction levels and common problems encountered. from this, it was possible to assess the potential impact for operators. The findings compare feedback from 3,000 smartphone users who took part in an online survey alongside the experiences of a further 500 smartphone users. These 500 users were provided with a tailor made app with which to log the nature and frequency of any issues encountered – and their reactions to these issues.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

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.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
