Presentazione realizzata dagli alunni della scuola \"Bartolena\" di Livorno sulla figura di don Roberto Angeli, prete nella resistenza, e sulla realtà dei campi di sterminio nazisti
The document discusses different learning theories and how they relate to learning technologies. It describes Oliver's framework, which categorizes learning along five dimensions: individual, social, reflection, non-reflection, information, and experience. The document then provides examples of how different learning technologies align with these theories. Drill programs are analyzed in terms of their individual/social, reflective/non-reflective, and information/experiential aspects. Behavioral elements in computer games and their links to conditioning are also discussed. Various constructivist learning systems are presented, including concept mapping tools and collaborative environments. Possibilities for ubiquitous learning are outlined as well.
Louis Riel was born in 1844 in the Red River Settlement and attended schooling but did not complete training to become a priest or lawyer. He went on to lead the Métis people and establish a provisional government to protect French rights, but in 1885 he led the North-West Rebellion and surrendered after Batoche fell. Riel was then tried and convicted for treason, with his trial and execution making him a controversial figure, but his legacy and contributions to Métis rights are still discussed today.
The liver produces bile which breaks down fats into droplets for easier digestion. The pancreas releases amylase, trypsin, and lipase to break down starch, proteins, and fats. The small intestine contains maltase and peptidases that further break down sugars and proteins, allowing absorption of fatty acids, glucose, and amino acids into the bloodstream.
The document describes the process of preparing an onion specimen slide for examination under a microscope. It involves peeling the onion skin, trimming it with surgical tools, placing it on a slide, staining it with iodine, and covering it with a coverslip to be viewed under a microscope after drying excess liquid.
This document is a presentation for the TESDA SCHOLARS BATCH 3 that prohibits duplication or distribution of its pictures without permission. It reflects on the journey the scholars took together, the memories they made, and how time passed quickly. It encourages looking back on their time together fondly as they now go their separate ways.

Data Science. Business Analytics is the statistical study of business data to gain insights. Data science is the study of data using statistics, algorithms and technology. Uses mostly structured data. Uses both structured and unstructured data.
Start With Why: Build Product Progress with a Strong Data CultureAggregage
Have you ever thought your product's progress was headed in one direction, and been shocked to see a different story reflected in big picture KPIs like revenue? It can be confusing when customer feedback or metrics like registration or retention are painting a different picture. No matter how sophisticated your analytics are, if you're asking the wrong questions - or looking at the wrong metrics - you're going to have trouble getting answers that can help you.
Join Nima Gardideh, CTO of Pearmill, as he demonstrates how to build a strong data culture within your team, so everyone understands which metrics they should actually focus on - and why. Then, he'll explain how you can use your analytics to regularly review progress and successes. Finally, he'll discuss what you should keep in mind when instrumenting your analytics.

The majority of organizations (54%) use people analytics to improve HR effectiveness today. Organizations more frequently rely on people analytics to improve business outcomes, organizational performance and achieve labor cost savings.
People Analytics allows HR to gain a more strategic role in the organization and clearly show its impact.
Advanced organizations use data to analyze the workforce proactively, make predictions, and create and monitor comprehensive workforce plans to achieve financial success.
HR data has become an strategic priority, but it takes efforts in order to enable the usage of it.
This document discusses how startups can leverage big and small data to improve their business. It recommends that startups collect usage, purchase, and interaction data to gain insights. The same data can provide different views to optimize aspects like aesthetics, fraud detection, marketing, and pricing. Startups should experiment by conducting A/B tests and act on what the data shows rather than vanity metrics. More sophisticated statistical and machine learning algorithms can help understand metrics when experimenting is not possible, but correlation does not imply causation. Automating business reactions to real-time data is ideal, or reacting to appropriate data manually using visual summaries.
Lecture notes on being Data-Driven and doing Data Science Johan Himberg
Visiting lecture held at Aalto University School of Business on prof. Pekka Malo's course "Data Science for Business". Lecture given by Johan Himberg and Jaakko Särelä (@ReaktorNow)
Business analytics (BA) is the practice of iterative, methodical exploration of an organization's data, with an emphasis on statistical analysis. BA is used by companies committed to data-driven decision-making to gain insights that inform business decisions and can be used to automate and optimize business processes. BA techniques break down into basic business intelligence, which involves collecting and preparing data, and deeper statistical analysis. True data science involves more custom coding and open-ended questions compared to most business analysts.
This document provides an introduction to data analytics, including its definition, evolution, types, importance and applications. It discusses how data analytics involves analyzing and interpreting data to uncover insights, trends and patterns to inform decision making. The document outlines the process of data analytics and how it transforms data into insights through scientific methods and tools. It also lists some key benefits of data analytics for business, such as improving efficiency, enhancing customer engagement and increasing revenue.
When building a data team from scratch or inheriting an existing team, there are plenty of questions to ask when thinking about how to successfully deliver on our mission to the company. Should data engineering be part of the data organization or does it sit better with the engineering team? Data scientist is a job title that means a lot of different things to different companies, what does it mean to us? Are we aligned around platforms or functions? What's our strategy around data governance and compliance? And that's just to name a few.
This talk will present some insights from prior experience on structuring data teams, both at startups and larger legacy organizations, covering examples that have been both successful and not so successful, and lessons learned in each case.

End-to-end pipeline agility - Berlin Buzzwords 2024Lars Albertsson
We describe how we achieve high change agility in data engineering by eliminating the fear of breaking downstream data pipelines through end-to-end pipeline testing, and by using schema metaprogramming to safely eliminate boilerplate involved in changes that affect whole pipelines.
A quick poll on agility in changing pipelines from end to end indicated a huge span in capabilities. For the question "How long time does it take for all downstream pipelines to be adapted to an upstream change," the median response was 6 months, but some respondents could do it in less than a day. When quantitative data engineering differences between the best and worst are measured, the span is often 100x-1000x, sometimes even more.
A long time ago, we suffered at Spotify from fear of changing pipelines due to not knowing what the impact might be downstream. We made plans for a technical solution to test pipelines end-to-end to mitigate that fear, but the effort failed for cultural reasons. We eventually solved this challenge, but in a different context. In this presentation we will describe how we test full pipelines effectively by manipulating workflow orchestration, which enables us to make changes in pipelines without fear of breaking downstream.
Making schema changes that affect many jobs also involves a lot of toil and boilerplate. Using schema-on-read mitigates some of it, but has drawbacks since it makes it more difficult to detect errors early. We will describe how we have rejected this tradeoff by applying schema metaprogramming, eliminating boilerplate but keeping the protection of static typing, thereby further improving agility to quickly modify data pipelines without fear.
ViewShift: Hassle-free Dynamic Policy Enforcement for Every Data LakeWalaa Eldin Moustafa
Dynamic policy enforcement is becoming an increasingly important topic in today’s world where data privacy and compliance is a top priority for companies, individuals, and regulators alike. In these slides, we discuss how LinkedIn implements a powerful dynamic policy enforcement engine, called ViewShift, and integrates it within its data lake. We show the query engine architecture and how catalog implementations can automatically route table resolutions to compliance-enforcing SQL views. Such views have a set of very interesting properties: (1) They are auto-generated from declarative data annotations. (2) They respect user-level consent and preferences (3) They are context-aware, encoding a different set of transformations for different use cases (4) They are portable; while the SQL logic is only implemented in one SQL dialect, it is accessible in all engines.

The Building Blocks of QuestDB, a Time Series Databasejavier ramirez
Talk Delivered at Valencia Codes Meetup 2024-06.
Traditionally, databases have treated timestamps just as another data type. However, when performing real-time analytics, timestamps should be first class citizens and we need rich time semantics to get the most out of our data. We also need to deal with ever growing datasets while keeping performant, which is as fun as it sounds.
It is no wonder time-series databases are now more popular than ever before. Join me in this session to learn about the internal architecture and building blocks of QuestDB, an open source time-series database designed for speed. We will also review a history of some of the changes we have gone over the past two years to deal with late and unordered data, non-blocking writes, read-replicas, or faster batch ingestion.

Global Situational Awareness of A.I. and where its headedvikram sood
You can see the future first in San Francisco.
Over the past year, the talk of the town has shifted from $10 billion compute clusters to $100 billion clusters to trillion-dollar clusters. Every six months another zero is added to the boardroom plans. Behind the scenes, there’s a fierce scramble to secure every power contract still available for the rest of the decade, every voltage transformer that can possibly be procured. American big business is gearing up to pour trillions of dollars into a long-unseen mobilization of American industrial might. By the end of the decade, American electricity production will have grown tens of percent; from the shale fields of Pennsylvania to the solar farms of Nevada, hundreds of millions of GPUs will hum.
The AGI race has begun. We are building machines that can think and reason. By 2025/26, these machines will outpace college graduates. By the end of the decade, they will be smarter than you or I; we will have superintelligence, in the true sense of the word. Along the way, national security forces not seen in half a century will be un-leashed, and before long, The Project will be on. If we’re lucky, we’ll be in an all-out race with the CCP; if we’re unlucky, an all-out war.
Everyone is now talking about AI, but few have the faintest glimmer of what is about to hit them. Nvidia analysts still think 2024 might be close to the peak. Mainstream pundits are stuck on the wilful blindness of “it’s just predicting the next word”. They see only hype and business-as-usual; at most they entertain another internet-scale technological change.
Before long, the world will wake up. But right now, there are perhaps a few hundred people, most of them in San Francisco and the AI labs, that have situational awareness. Through whatever peculiar forces of fate, I have found myself amongst them. A few years ago, these people were derided as crazy—but they trusted the trendlines, which allowed them to correctly predict the AI advances of the past few years. Whether these people are also right about the next few years remains to be seen. But these are very smart people—the smartest people I have ever met—and they are the ones building this technology. Perhaps they will be an odd footnote in history, or perhaps they will go down in history like Szilard and Oppenheimer and Teller. If they are seeing the future even close to correctly, we are in for a wild ride.
Let me tell you what we see.
