Targeted employment support - who needs your help into work most?
At IntoWork Convention 2016 in Birmingham Deven Ghelani delivered this slide deck to an audience of local authorities, housing assocations and welfare to work providers.
The combination of spending reductions, major reforms to the welfare system, local authority partnerships on ESF programmes and Universal Support create a unique opportunity to unlock the power of local authority data.
Employment support providers want to know who's most likely to benefit from their programmes, and policymakers want to ensure support gets to people most in need.
Knowing who is most likely to benefit from employment support programmes is critical to targeting support programmes effectively.
Deven demonstrated why he believes local authority data sets can be the key to revealing who could benefit most from work support programmes.

Alpine Bank was awarded the 2016 24-Karat Gold Award for creating a partnership where it purchased solar panels and donated the credits to a nonprofit to help low-income families. The bank bought 82 solar panels from a community solar garden and gave ownership to a family resource center. This allows the center to provide the solar credits to about 20 families, reducing their electric bills. The bank hopes this model encourages other organizations to bring clean energy and assistance to communities. Alpine Bank has invested nearly $900,000 in community solar gardens totaling over 1,000 solar panels.

The bonds are an accessible form of investment open to unaccredited investors. The Centre uses this community bond model and other programs like crowdfunding and microloans to support social entrepreneurs and help them access funding to grow
Akshaya
The Akshaya pilot project was launched in November 2002 in Trivandrum, India by the President to bridge the digital divide. The Kerala State Information Technology Mission conceived of Akshaya as a landmark ICT project to bring the benefits of information and communication technology to the entire population of the state. Akshaya e-centres were established as public-private ventures at the local level to encourage social inclusion and provide entrepreneurial opportunities for young people, with the goal of having entrepreneurs run the centers and deliver services to benefit local communities.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

High performance Serverless Java on AWS- GoTo Amsterdam 2024
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
