Historically, banks have had exclusivity on accessing and obtaining your financial information and giving advice on the products and information at hand. In a complex market where information is difficult to understand, this monopoly has resulted in low financial literacy and low transparency, and innovation in the market has suffered. Tink is granting developers across any sector access to our APIs to make full use of our aggregation and categorisation products. Through our portal, developers can experiment with their ideas using access to real production data.
By removing the barriers to access financial data, we allow companies to focus on the development of their core business, bringing their vision to life, and ultimately creating better customer experiences, 18 months prior to PSD2 is forcing banks to open their APIs.
The floodgates to banks’ data has been opened and the monopoly has been broken. Tomas will show how developers can build kick-ass products once the data has been accessed, and show easy-to-use tools that propel quick and affordable development beyond PSD2 data.
The document discusses how Git can be viewed as a purely functional data structure. It provides examples of how Git operations like committing, amending, branching, rebasing, and merging manipulate the data structure in an immutable, functional way. Seeing Git as a functional data structure helps explain how it allows collaborating developers to update code without interfering with each other or losing old versions.
From git to blockchain ! This talk is about git, immutability, bitcoin, blockchain and links between the two.
Is git a blockchain ? Is bitcoin a git repository ?

Victor Sabatier is a freelance web and mobile developer who builds applications using Meteor, React, and React Native. He presented on React Native which allows developers to write mobile apps using React and release them for both iOS and Android. The benefits of React Native include better look and feel, improved developer experience, and the ability to choose your level of abstraction. Potential downsides discussed included fast release cycles and differences in compilation principles compared to traditional mobile development.
React Fiber is a reimplementation of React's core algorithm that was developed over two years by the React team. It allows React to pause, resume, prioritize and cancel updates for smoother animations and less work when updating the UI, such as in React Native. Previously, React would render all updates as quickly as possible, but Fiber allows breaking work into chunks to improve performance.
What to do when you must monitor the whole infrastructure of the biggest European hosting and cloud provider? How to choose a tool when the most used ones fail to scale to your needs? How to build an Metrics platform to unify, conciliate and replace years of fragmented legacy partial solutions? In this talk we will relate our experience building and maintaining OVH Metrics, the platform used to monitor all OVH infrastructure. We needed to go to places where most monitoring solutions hadn’t gone before, it needed to operate at the scale of the biggest European hosting and cloud providers.

The document discusses the challenges of running a bootstrapped product business. It notes that in addition to working on the product, entrepreneurs will find themselves taking on new responsibilities like documentation, support, accounting, taxes, hosting, marketing, and more. It emphasizes that entrepreneurs should prepare for dependencies on third party services and ensure they can survive disruptions by owning their data, having disaster recovery plans, and periodically testing alternative solutions. The overall message is that successfully running a product requires showing up for many "everything else" tasks beyond just development.
This document describes Bettina Shzu-Juraschek's efforts at ImmobilienScout24 to test and improve their cancellation letter generator tool. Through 6 iterations of testing different versions, they were able to increase the number of letters generated per month from 6,800 to 16,800 and relocation requests from 100 to 500. The key lessons learned were to naturally integrate the product into the user flow, make it easy for the user to make a single decision, provide clarity on what users will receive, keep the form brief, remove distractions, and continue iterating to help users and improve products.
Innovation at OnTheWight - Presented at What's next for Community Journalism ...onthewight
The presentation Simon gave at the "What's next for Community Journalism" conference organised by Centre for Community Journalism in Cardiff in September 2015.
We were asked to give a talk with an overview of innovations that we'd carried out over our ten years of doing #hyperlocal news on the Isle of Wight.
As the early innovation was so long ago, much of it has become mainstream in the intervening years!
The term "connected device” is typically used to mean a device or machine that is capable of connecting to a network - i.e. it can send and receive data via cellular, WiFi, or bluetooth connections. But is this really a connected device? Integration and interoperability are required for a device to be relevant in the Internet of Things, and Web APIs are the de facto standard enabling true connectivity. By looking at some successful implementations around connected “things”, we’ll understand the key requirements for an API First approach to IoT - including backend integration, mediation and security.

GitHub is the largest code host on the planet with over 29.9 million repositories. Large or small, every repository comes with the same powerful tools. These tools are open to the community for public projects and secure for private projects.
Often talks about data science focus on tools and methods. Tools are important and it is really important to stay up to date with the latest tools and technologies (they are the “how”). But data science is also about finding good problems and solving them (the “why”). Good problems are ones that are both valuable (someone really wants an answer) and tractable (there is data you can find to help you answer it). Today, with modern technologies, many more problems are tractable than ever before; lots of data is freely available on the internet and sensors make it easy to collect ad hoc data sets. This talk will emphasize the importance of asking “why” by exploring a few examples from Datascope’s client work and our various side projects where, if we hadn’t asked “why”, the outcomes would have been far less useful.

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.

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...SOFTTECHHUB
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.
