Delivering an Oral Statement
You will need to deliver an oral statement that is clear, confident, and exhibits knowledge of the issue. Usually, written statements must be available to the committee 24-48 hours in advance. In the interest of time, it is usually not necessary or desirable for a witness to read his or her entire written statement.
Some general guidelines for preparing a statement to Congress include the following:
· Introduce yourself, your occupation, organization, and personal relevant background of the subject.
· Greet the chairman of the committee and the committee as a whole.
· Be brief, you will have about five minutes to speak.
· State the issue you will testify on.
· Focus only on key points.
· Focus on the current situation and how the action you recommend will improve it.
· Avoid presentation software (such as PowerPoint).
· Check with committee staff in advance about the use of visual aides.
· At the end, briefly wait for questions from committee members.

Chapter 14 discusses cyber law which is the Digital Wild West as described by the Author. It is such a new and fascinating cyber world out there that is just in the infancy stages where the law is always one step behind. We need a lot of good sheriffs out there to protect us in this cyber world and it appears we have some good people protecting us but we sure need a lot more. We also need to try to get ahead of the bad guys but we are always coming up with new laws because of what the bad guys have already done on the Internet. If we could only get one step ahead instead of always being one step behind! :-)
We hear about young hackers often only high school kids who are able to hack into the Pentagon, banks, credit companies, and some of the most secure businesses in the world and it are certainly hard for any business to feel really safe when they are doing business on the Internet. There is so much computer fraud, identity theft, cyber torts and all those cookies and acts of piracy that it makes an old person like me wishing it was like the good old days! :-) Not really. Businesses can get work done so more efficiently and quickly using the Internet and it is only going to grow 100 fold in the next few years. We might all as well learn all we can about safeguarding ourselves in the world of cyberspace and grow in knowledge to try to stay up with all the changes that are occurring so quickly in this arena.
The section on Click – Wrap Contracts is a very interesting one and it is surprising that there is a split in the courts where some courts apply the rule when you click the “I agree” box you have read and understood and therefore the “buyer beware” applies While other courts feel that these long legal contracts with terms many people do not even understand and do not even read them are not valid as they are not understood by many customers. As the textbook says, you should really always assume that you are going to be held liable for whatever the contract says and when you click the “I Agree” box, the Agreement will prevail.
As we all know, at one time you could buy anything on the Internet and you would not be taxed. Whenever the government feels they are losing money in some way they are going to do whatever it takes to be sure they get their cut out of any transactions that are occurring on the Internet if there is any possible way for them to do so. They will get their share. They have started instituting tax laws when and where ever they can as they see that big revenue pile up money just waiting for them to scoop it up. The taxing is just beginning folks and will only get worse in time. :-)
There are more and more businesses that are doing business through the Internet because there are so man ...

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.

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.

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:

The Metaverse is popularized in science fiction, and now it is becoming closer to being a part of our daily lives through the use of social media and shopping companies. How can businesses survive in a world where Artificial Intelligence is becoming the present as well as the future of technology, and how does the Metaverse fit into business strategy when futurist ideas are developing into reality at accelerated rates? How do we do this when our data isn't up to scratch? How can we move towards success with our data so we are set up for the Metaverse when it arrives?
How can you help your company evolve, adapt, and succeed using Artificial Intelligence and the Metaverse to stay ahead of the competition? What are the potential issues, complications, and benefits that these technologies could bring to us and our organizations? In this session, Jen Stirrup will explain how to start thinking about these technologies as an organisation.

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.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

104. Net Present Value? From the Arizona Republic: For possible sale with a lease-back: Two three-story buildings, constructed in 1960, with a connecting basement, electronic-voting system and reliable, if somewhat combative, tenants. The Arizona Legislature, in a bid to close up the state budget, is looking to sell the House and Senate buildings and lease them back for as long as 20 years. The move would cost as much as $1.2 billion in lease payments, but give the state some quick cash, possibly up to $735 million. An increase of 7 percent in the broadband adoption rate in every state, yields an overall economic benefit of approximately $134 billion a year. This would product 2.4 million jobs, saving $92 billion; $35.2 billion in benefits from accessing broadband at home; $6.4 billion from the reduced needs for travel; $662 million in health care savings; and $18.2 million in carbon credits. http://connectednation.org/research/economic_impact_study/
