The Rutherford gold foil experiment discovered the atomic nucleus. In this experiment, Rutherford beamed particles at a gold foil and observed some particles bouncing back at large angles, indicating a small, dense nucleus at the center of the atom. Dalton's atomic theory proposed that atoms of different elements can combine in simple whole number ratios to form compounds. Isotopes are atoms that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons, giving them the same atomic number but different atomic mass numbers. The periodic table arranges elements into groups based on repeating properties and allows easy comparison of elemental properties.
This topic was quite boring especially now that we are in an online class. What I did was I make it an interactive lesson wherein some of my learners will play the role also using their own name. all throughout the class, they will read the part of their role. This approach in this topic was very effective.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

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.

2. •4.1 Defining the Atom
• An
atom is the smallest particle of an
element that retains its identity in a
chemical reaction.
• It is difficult to directly observe an atom
because it is so small.
3. •Democritus Atomic Philosophy
• He
believed atoms were indivisible and
indestructible.
• He was the first to suggest the existence
of atoms but he lacked experiments to
prove it.
4. •Dalton’s Atomic Theory
• By
using
experimental
connections,
Dalton
transformed
previous ideas
about atoms into
a scientific theory.
5. •Dalton’s Atomic Theory
1. All elements are composed of tiny
indivisible particles called atoms.
• 2. Atoms of the same element are identical.
The atoms of any one element are different
from those of any other element.
• 3. Atoms of different elements can physically
mix together or can chemically combine in
simple whole-number ratios to form
compounds.
• 4. Chemical reactions occur when atoms are
separated, joined, or rearranged. Atoms of
one element, however, are never changed
into atoms of another element as a result of a
chemical reaction.
•
6. •Sizing up the Atom
• Individual
atoms are
difficult to see
because they are so
small.
• Despite their small
size, atoms are
observable with
instruments such as
scanning tunneling
microscopes.

8. •4.2 Structure of the Nuclear Atom
There are three kinds of subatomic particles in
an atom.
• Proton, neutron and electron.
• Protons are positive.
• Electrons are negative.
• Neutrons have no charge.
• The cathode ray experiment showed that
electrons were negative because they were
repelled by a negative plate and attracted
by a positive plate.
•

11. •The Atomic Nucleus
Rutherford developed an experiment called the
Gold- Foil experiment.
• He beamed particles at gold foil.
• Some of the particles passed through easily and
some were deflected back.
• Some bounced off at large angles.
• The nucleus was discovered and that’s what was
causing the bounce back of the particles.
• It was also discovered that atoms are mostly
empty space.

15. •4.3 Distinguishing Among Atoms
• Elements
are different because they
contain different amounts of protons.
• The atomic number of an element is
the number of protons.
• The atomic mass number is the number
of protons plus the number of neutrons.
16. •Math Monkey Moment

atom?

17. •Isotopes
• Isotopes
are atoms that have the same
number of protons but different
numbers of neutrons.
• They have the same atomic number
but different atomic mass numbers.
• To distinguish isotopes from each other,
writing elements in shorthand notation is
necessary.
21. •SUM IT UP
How is an
isotope
different from
a regular
atom?
22. •Atomic Mass
In nature, most elements occur as a mixture
of two or more isotopes.
• Each isotope of an element has a fixed mass
and a natural percent abundance.
• The atomic mass of an element is the
weighted average mass of the atoms in a
naturally occurring sample of the element.
• To calculate the atomic mass of an element,
multiply the mass of an element by the
percent natural abundance and then add
the products.

25. •Periodic Table-Preview
•A
periodic table arranges elements into
groups based on a set of repeating
properties.
• It allows you to compare the properties
of one element with another easily.
• Each horizontal row is called a period.
• Each vertical column is called a group.

element from the
periodic table.
