1) Hominids first appeared around 3 million years ago after dinosaurs went extinct 65 million years ago. Early hominids like Lucy could walk upright unlike apes.
2) Handy Man was one of the first hominids to use stone tools during the Stone Age around 3 million years ago. Upright Man knew how to control fire which helped communities form.
3) Cro-Magnon Man lived in Europe and worked together in tribes, hunting with tools like nets and fishhooks. They decorated cave walls with paintings of animals and hands.

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.

Early humans
1. The First Humans Hominids are the family of mankind and his or her relatives. Written by Lin Donn Illustrated by Phillip Martin
2. 65 Million Years Ago Dinosaurs died out about 65 million years ago. The first human like hominids did not appear until around 3 million years ago. No matter what you may have seen in the movies, early man did not live during the same period in history as dinosaurs! Not that early man had it easy, but he did not have to fight dinosaurs!
3. 3 Million Years Ago 3 million years ago, our planet was teeming with life! There were deer, giraffes, hyenas, sheep, goats, horses, elephants, camels, beavers, cave lions, ants, termites, woolly mammoths, saber-toothed tigers, giant sharks, dogs with huge teeth, and all kinds of birds and plants and fish.
4. Very Early Humans It was during this time that the higher primates, including apes and early man, first appeared. Their hands were different, too. Ape hands were made for climbing and clinging. Man’s hands were jointed differently, which allowed them to make and use tools. There was a difference between apes and man. Early human-like hominids could stand upright. Apes could not.
5. Very Early Humans How do scientists know about an early man who lived 3 million years ago? Lucy told them!
6. Lucy In 1974, a skeleton was found in Africa. The bones were those of a female, about 20 years old or so when she died. Scientists named her Lucy. About 3 million years ago, when Lucy was alive, she was about 4 feet tall and weighed about 50 pounds. Scientists suspect that she fell into a lake or river and drowned. Scientists are like detectives. They can tell a great deal from a skeleton, whether it's one year old or 3 million years old!
7. Fossils & Artifacts Scientists use many clues to help them put pieces of the past together. One thing they must know is the difference between a fossil and an artifact. Artifacts are remains of things that were made, not remains of living things. Fossils are remains of living things (plants, animals, people), not things that were made.
8. Handy Man The Stone Age refers to the materials used to make man-made tools. In the Stone Age, man made tools out of stone. “Handy Man” was one of the first hominids to use stone tools. Hunters & Gatherers: The Old Stone Age people were hunters/gatherers. We know this because scientists have found fossils and artifacts , which reveal traces of their life. These people did not plant crops. They gathered wild fruits, nuts, berries, and vegetables.
9. Handy Man These early human-like hominids were taller and smarter than Lucy’s people, but they did not know how to make fire. When they broke camp, they probably tried to bring fire with them by carrying lit branches to use to start a new campfire. If their branches went out, they did without fire until they found something burning.
10. Upright Man Many years passed. Another group of man was born. Scientists nicknamed this group “Upright Man”. Upright Man did know how to make fire. That changed everything! People began to cook their food, which helped to reduce disease. People collected around the fire each night, to share stories of the day's hunt and activities, which helped to develop a spirit of community.
11. Upright Man These Stone Age people were about the same size as modern humans. Their tool-making skills were considerably improved. Their weapons included stone axes and knives. Because Upright Man could make fire, he was free to move about in search of food. He did not have to worry about freezing. He made warm clothes from animal skins. At night, he built a campfire to cook his food and to stay warm.
12. Man Leaves Home About one million years ago, Upright Man began to slowly leave Africa. These early people began to populate the world. Scientists have found artifacts of their tools and weapons, which help us to understand how they lived, where they went, and how they got there. They did not need a boat. The Ice Age was here! They traveled across giant walkways of frozen ice, over what later would become vast rivers and seas.
13. Neanderthals One day, scientists found a new skeleton. This skeleton was from another group of early men. Scientists named this man Neanderthal man , after the valley in which the skeleton had been found. Scientists announced that these early men were dim-witted brutes, who walked with bent knees, with their heads slung forward on their big necks. Could these early people really be our ancestors?
14. Neanderthals But scientists had made a mistake! The bones were bent because they were part of the skeleton of an old man suffering from arthritis! Arthritis is a disease that bends and cripples bones.
15. Neanderthals Still, Neanderthals were different from other species of early humans. They were tall and smart, and used caves as their homes. They were great hunters. Considering how smart they were, and how advanced for their time, scientists are puzzled that the Neanderthals were one of the early species of man to die out. Many species of man died out in these early days. But why the Neanderthals? It is a history mystery.
16. Cro-Magnon Man Another group of early men stood out during this period. Scientists nicknamed this group “Cro-Magnon man”. Cro-Magnon man lived in Europe. This group did not live a life of constant struggle for survival because they worked together to provide food for their tribe.
17. Cro-Magnon Man These Stone Age people learned to cure and store food for the long winter. They used traps, which allowed them to catch food while they were busy doing something else. Fisherman used nets woven from vines and fishhooks. Some groups built rafts and canoes to catch bigger fish in deeper waters. They made clothing and jewelry. They invented the bow and arrow.
18. Cave Paintings Cro-Magnon man did something rather unusual. For some reason, he drew paintings deep inside dark caves, on cave walls. His paintings were added to the paintings already on the cave walls, left by other Cro-Magnon men. Over time, a cave might accumulate hundreds of paintings. Colors used most often were brown, yellow/tan, dark red, and coal black.
19. Cave Paintings Animals were well drawn and filled in with natural colors to give them even more shape and substance. They drew stick figures for hunters. They drew stencils of hands.
20. Cave Paintings To reach the deepest part of the cave, where other paintings could be found, Cro-Magnon man had to crawl through the maze like tunnels of the cave, holding a spoon-like oil lamp to light his way, while carrying his carefully prepared paints.
21. A Mystery It was quite dangerous. Cro-Magnon man had no idea if he might run into a cave lion. He might fall into a hole and die. There are many history mysteries. This is one of them. Why did he do it? Perhaps it was a coming of age ceremony, or perhaps it served a religious purpose. Maybe it was a sort of, “I was here.”
22. Lascaux France The existence of cave paintings was discovered by accident. Around 1940, during World War II, some kids were playing in a field in Lascaux, France. They stumbled across a cave entrance. It had been hidden by the tree roots. The walls were covered with cave paintings! Once people knew the paintings existed, they looked for more such caves, and found them.
23. Recap We know about early Stone Age people because scientists have found fossils and artifacts that reveal traces of their life. Man went through many stages to evolve into the humans of today! Since this evolution covers roughly 3 million years, you might say it took man a long time to grow up!

Editor's Notes
Teacher Notes: To avoid being burned, and to avoid having the lamp go out, it had to balanced carefully to hold the burning oil inside the rounded part of the spoon-like oil lamp.
Teacher Notes: Caves with paintings in them have been found in many parts of the world. There are probably more caves to be discovered.
Answers: Someone who gathers food growing wild, and hunts for food. A time in history when tools were made from stone Fire helped people survive. Fire was a source of heat, to stay warm in the Ice Age. Fire let them cook their food, which reduced the incident of disease. The ability to make fire allowed them to live and move about freely, in search of food and shelter, knowing they could relight a fire when needed. It was the Ice Age. They walked. Stick figures of people, well drawn animals, and stencil drawings of human hand prints No one knows. It’s a history mystery. Archaeologists have put many pieces of the past together. But there are many pieces yet to be discovered.
