George Washington Carver was an American scientist and inventor who developed hundreds of products using peanuts, sweet potatoes, and other crops. He promoted crop rotation and soil enrichment to improve yields for southern farmers. Carver extracted dyes, paints, and plastic from plants. He envisioned forming a superhero team to fight crime and make streets safe.

Fuck the nightclubs, slot machines and shows! The real Vegas adventures occur in swing clubs, hotel rooms and private homes.
You can lose a tooth and wake up with a tiger in your toilet, or hump 800 women in two years. Choose the former, and your soul will starve like a vegan trapped in a butcher shop. Why choke on the thought-inhibiting crumbs this system offers, when you can thrive?
From corn cob dildos, to guys with two dicks, the human condition is captured here.
Teeming with truth, this book is strawberry-flavored cum ― easy to swallow, but not for everyone.

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).

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.

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.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
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.

2. George Washington Carver
George Washington Carver was born in Kansas
Territory near Diamond Grove, Missouri, during
the bloody struggle between free- spoilers and
slaveholders. His father, a slave on a nearby
farm, was killed shortly before Carver was born.
Carver himself became the kidnap victim of night
riders while still a baby. With his mother and
brother, James, he was held for ransom. Before
they were rescued, his mother died. Moses Carver, a
German farmer, ransomed (traded) the infant
Carver for a $300 race-horse. Thus he was
orphaned and left in the custody of a white guardian
from early childhood.
4. 1st Diary Entry: G.W.C
Spooky Time Fo’
Sho’
A peanut...with America shoes? How can y'all top that? I
reckon tha boy will come back with many a Payday candy
fo sho. Knowhumean? Damned if ol' GWC ain’t goin' to
sneak a few fo hizself. "Sweet Caramel. Tons of Salty
Peanuts." That make George Carver's tummy a’rumble.
Meybe me thinks I'll get Mrs. Carver to git some fo tha
chilluns that show up to our door, send her out with George
Junior, turn off tha porchlight, and eat all tha damn Paydays
hizself. Inventin’ make a man powerful
hungry, knowhumean?
Now that GWC is on tha topic of inventin' les see what I
come up with as of late. George Carver is thinkin' meybe
some folk is straight sick as shiz of punkins. You carves em.
You get punkin slime all ova. Tha seeds inside ain’t no good.
Damn, Sucka. Damn. THEY’S GOT TO BE A BETTA WAY!!!
5. 2nd Diary Entry: G.W.C
Don’t Ya’ll worry bout’ George
Carver
Well ,well, well. Sorry chilluns that George Carver hadn’t dun
updated in many a while but ol’ GWC reckoned that the
mufukin’ hard drive would meybe work better all smeared up
with peanut butter and shiz. It would appear that my
calculations were very much inexact, to say the least, as my
mufukin’ ‘puter dun blew tha fuck up and shiz. George Carver
is a man with many a 'accomplishment....but the good Lordy
above sho knows that, yours truly, dun hate a fuck up with a
passion greater than George Carver at Arby’s when there ain’t
no mufukin’ Arby sauze. One day I’m all about to get my eat
on AND THERE AIN’T NO DAMN SAUZE!!! George is so mad he
close his eyes and wishes for Arby Sauze. (How a mufuka
suppozed to enjoy his "Five For Five" all dry and
shiz, knowhumean?) He count to one. He count to two. He
counts to three. You know what? There still ain’t no mufukin’
sauze! MUFUKIN’ LITTLE CRACKER AT THE COUNTER IS GOIN’ TA
GET HIS AZZ WHOOPED!!!!.......Ok, Ok. I gots to let that one
go.
6. 3rd Diary Entry: G.W.C
Now gather round, and be still chillen, I got somethin important to tell y‟all. Now
the other day I was standin on my toilet hangin a picture when I slip and
fall, see, and hit my sweet old head. When I comes to, I see a mufuckin vision. An
not the kinda vision I see when I smellin too much Turtle Wax or anything, but a
real vision of how to stop all the killin and stealin and general tomfoolery that be
happenin rampant in them here streets, see. My vision say, “George Carver, you
needs to form a super hero justice brigade!” Now I was like, “That you, mama!?
Oooh I commin mama, hold on…!!!” An the vision be like “No, I ain‟t your damn
mama, I here‟s a vision you be havin.” And says “Then why you sound like my
mama” and so on, and this goes on for about 4 days or so and then when we
both pretty tired and the pies is done coolin, I decide to gather up the best, most
super, most justicious heroes I can find and pledge to fight crime until every
mufuckin person, woman and baby can walk these here streets an safe feel safe
as sin. So I place an ad in the Recycler, and I get a call from Doctor Weil and he
says “I be glad to contributate with my powers of holisitc ability” and next I get a
call from Enro Rubik who was the first man to finish the Rubik‟s cube ever, and
he say “I willing to apply this logic and skill to your team” and then I get a call
from Henry Ford and he says “In 1908 I made the Model T which was very
popular” and I thinkin of not eva returnin his calls, but he keeps callin and
yappin like an assembly line of pussy shit, so what the hell I „sposta do?
7. Achievements: G.W.C
George Washington Carver (1864-1943) was a man of many talents
and is considered an American folk hero. Carver's accomplishments
are mostly in the areas of agriculture and the development of plant-
based products for industrial use.
Carver was a pioneer in soil analysis, crop management, and the
control of plant diseases. Many southern farmers who adopted his
methods experienced greater crop yields and profits. Carver promoted
soil diversification and the adoption of peanuts, soybeans, and other
soil-enriching crops. He developed 118 products using sweet
potatoes, 325 products using peanuts, and 75 products using pecans.
Carver also came up with a process for creating a plastic material
from soybeans. Henry Ford later used this plastic in the manufacture
of automobiles. In addition, Carver extracted dyes and paints from
Alabama red clay and worked with hybrid (the offspring of
genetically different varieties or species) cotton.
