Facebook recently came under fire for the discreet international roll-out of its photo facial recognition feature. This feature automatically identifies and suggests tags for individuals appearing in photos posted on Facebook. At first glance, this seemingly innocuous feature appears to quietly augment online social lives. At second glance, the rollout of this feature as a defaulted-to-on setting with no explicit user consent raises many privacy concerns. As a site with extensive power driven by the quantity, quality, and kind of data it collects, Facebook’s decision to step into the world of visual recognition of its users without formal user consent is a big no-no—or is it?
Join us for this month’s eBoost Consulting Brown Bag Lunch Webinar to explore this and other cases that raise internet privacy concerns. Learn the ins, outs, and nuances of internet privacy to determine where to draw the line on data collection and usage.
Rails is not enough, by Javier Ramirez, at Conferencia Rails 2010 in Madrid, ...javier ramirez
We rails people tend to think of Rails as the center-piece of web development. The same thing can be said of .net, Spring/Java Server Faces, Drupal, Python or name-your-web-framework-of-choice-here people.
Web frameworks are just a component of web applications, and if you want to succeed you better know the miriads of other components beyond your rockstar code.
In my session I will talk about things you must take into account and tools/techniques you should master if you want to make a difference in web development, independently of your development language/framework.
Talk delivered at conferencia rails 2010 in Madrid, Spain.
SNA for Recruitment - Pivotal Lunch TalkMatt Wright
50% of people are unhappy in their jobs. Why? Happiness is contagious, but so is misery. How can a study of human dynamics help us improve our working lives? We'll take a tour through graph theory and social network analysis and look at how build a new type of CRM system from the ground up in Neo4j. Nerd alert: Contains many graphs.

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.

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.

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.
