Did You Shanzhai Today? The Cathedral and the Bazaar in China. virginiacha
A look at Shanzhai Innovation from an applied research point of view. This PPT was shared with the 2011 Innovation Update Seminar seminar at the Institute of Systems Science, National University of Singapore. The story behind Shanzhai is about fast external learning and low cost of experimentation - it is not about copy bandit.
Have a vision but no idea how to get there? Call me, I can probably implement it or at least improve it.
I focus on early stage investments and provide services including product, marketing, strategic business development and incubation for startup companies.
Give me a call, 703 829 0371.
Will Robots Replace Designers? No. It's more like an exoskeleton for designers. Algorithm-driven design tools can help us to construct a UI, prepare assets and content, and personalize the user experience. In 2016 the technological foundations of these tools became easily accessible, and the design community got interested in algorithms, neural networks and artificial intelligence (AI). Now is the time to rethink the modern role of the designer.
UX strategy lacks strategy, it is usually just a glorified waterfall process, even agile processes are just incremental waterfall. This presentation tells the current state of UX strategy in pictures while it outlines a real UX Strategy in words.

One-Page Abundance Plan: How to Transform the Lives of 1 Billion Customers in...Rod King, Ph.D.
On October 10, 2012, I gave a Small Business University (SBU) workshop in Clovis, California on the “One-Page Abundance Plan.” The running theme of my presentation was “Think Big and Different.” Using the vision of the Abundance framework, which is espoused by Peter Diamandis and Steven Kotler in their 2012 book “Abundance,” I presented the One-Page Abundance Plan as a visual tool for systematically translating visions of Abundance into reality.
According to Peter Diamandis and Steven Kotler, we would soon realize a world of abundance due to the impact of exponential technologies that are consistent with Ray Kurzweil’s Law of Accelerating Returns. Kurzweil’s Law of Accelerating Return (which is more robust than Moore’s Law for the evolution of technology) and its expected impacts remind me of Arthur Clarke’s Third Law which states that “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” Expect apparently impossible or magical things in the Age of Abundance.
Based on Peter Diamandis and Steven Kotler’s book, “Abundance”, the workshop presentation introduces an Abundance Startup as “a lean startup that discovers and solves a Big Urgent Market Problem (BUMP) such as how to transform the lives of 1 billion customers in 10 years.” Apple’s disruptive innovation project on the classic iPod is presented as an example of an Abundance Startup.
Abundance Startups will help make the world a better place much faster. Abundance Startups focus on overcoming the greatest challenges that humanity faces such as the long-term goal of providing a world of 9 billion people with Clean Water, Nutritious Food, Affordable Housing, Personalized Education, Top-tier Medical Care, and Non-polluting, Ubiquitous Energy. The One-Page Abundance Plan will help entrepreneurs, startups, and established organizations to rapidly model, test, and validate ideas for achieving the goals, visions, and missions of Abundance Startup projects.

Filip Healy (Threesixty Reality): Making Immersive Tech More UsableAugmentedWorldExpo
A talk from the Design Track at AWE EU 2018 - the World's #1 XR Conference & Expo in Munich, Germany 18 -19, October, 2018.
Filip Healy (Threesixty Reality): Making immersive tech more usable: Involving target users in your design process
Understanding user needs, design research and usability testing are common practice today for most digital products. It's rare for a mobile app or website from any serious company to go live without some degree of testing with users.
The benefits of involving users in the design process are well known to UX professionals and digital product managers: improved usability, reduced dropouts, optimised conversion rates, higher engagement and better user advocacy.
In this talk I'll discuss how this applies to immersive tech and why it's more important than ever to understand actual user behaviour and develop new interaction paradigms that deliver on the potential of VR and AR platforms. I'll talk through the process of running studies with users, when to test the design, how to set things up and what data to focus on in order to get the most benefit from testing with users. What can we learn from this type of research and why is it important for ensuring the success of our product?

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
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.
