The document describes conventions commonly found on magazine covers. It discusses elements like the masthead at the top to draw the reader's eye, a strap line to further grab attention, a cover line in large bold text to showcase the main story, and a barcode. It notes design choices can indicate the target audience, like using pink colors and a star logo for a teenage girl's magazine. The main image is often a celebrity in direct address to attract readers and represent who they want to emulate.
Pairprogramming is one of the oldest practices known from XP and probably around way longer that any agile hype has been. Architectures and projects get more complex and large year by year and there is some evidence that problem solving is indeed easier and less error prone when executed as a group effort. This talk will outline the relationship of pairing to other agile practices such as Sprints, Daily Standups and Retrospectives. It is simply putting another, short cycled, loop in place to speed up problem solving and reducing bugs in produced code. However the narrative of software development tells us a great deal of (war)stories about solo coders saving the world in a lone effort. This is very misleading and might create a number of wrong assumptions about the craft in software development in general and could scare of interested young gun developers.
Pairing and in general working as a team can puts a highly effective and fun perspective on development projects in order to solve problems quick, refactor code with more courage and experience flow state continously.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.
