Bicycle accidents have been rising in recent years based on the data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Bicycle accident lawyer Los Angeles will also concur the same. There are 4 major reasons due to which these accidents.
This document provides an introduction to someone by sharing information about their family, friends, pets, hobbies, interests, favorite food, an interesting fact, travel experiences, and a chosen additional category. The author expresses what they like to do and why, as well as things people may not know about them.
This document discusses three ways that artificial intelligence can add value: 1) By efficiently processing large amounts of structured and unstructured data to identify new patterns and relationships; 2) Helping to organize human knowledge through clustering and ranking information to assign categories; 3) Making new connections for complex issues by predicting or deciding based on identifying patterns in high-dimensional datasets.
Impact partnerships bring together organizations from different sectors like government, corporations, non-profits to tackle complex social problems. They follow a process of discovery and design, engagement, delivery, and amplifying lessons learned. Impact partnerships can develop new solutions at scale and improve how government partners with other sectors to address key issues. Examples provided demonstrate how impact partnerships have addressed challenges like urban drone use and developing projects to support an inclusive economy.
Nesta is a UK-based global innovation foundation that aims to help individuals, organizations, and governments make more informed decisions about skills and jobs. It does this through three approaches: Open Jobs Data, which uses data and machine learning to provide labor market insights; Open Jobs Pilots, which partners with stakeholders on data-driven solutions; and Open Jobs Policy, which advocates for more open data-informed policies. Nesta was established in 1998 and has over 200 staff working on challenges like an aging population, public services, and changing job markets.
This document summarizes a report by Nesta on crowdfunding opportunities and challenges for charities, community groups, and social entrepreneurs. It finds that while awareness of crowdfunding is high, few organizations actually use it, largely due to lack of skills, knowledge, and capacity. Donation-based crowdfunding is most commonly used to fund events, campaigns, community spaces, and equipment. While crowdfunding provides opportunities to mobilize volunteers and fund projects that otherwise couldn't be funded, challenges include difficulty funding large projects and potential to disadvantage those without digital skills. The report recommends organizations try crowdfunding, partner with platforms, and funders provide support to build skills and integrate crowdfund
Realising the Value Stakeholder Event - Main slide deckNesta
This document provides an agenda and background information for a stakeholder event called "Realising the Value". The event aims to empower people and communities to take a more active role in managing their health and care. It will include workshops on understanding value, desired behavioral changes, prioritizing approaches, and how the system can better support individuals and communities. The program seeks to demonstrate the impact of person-centered approaches, develop tools to support implementation, and provide recommendations to enable the healthcare system to work more collaboratively with patients and communities.
Realising the Value Stakeholder Event -Workshop: How does the system support Nesta
Workshop D - How does the system support communities/individuals and how could it do it better?
The levers and drivers that national bodies put in place and how these are used locally have a significant impact on working in partnership with communities and patients. These levers and drivers include regulation, targets, outcomes measures, financial flows, annual contracting cycles, clinical standards, workforce training and revalidation etc.
This workshop will draw upon your experience and evidence to address two questions:
How these levers and drivers get in the way of working in partnership with patients and communities?
What is the best blend of approaches to support commissioners and providers locally to harness the energy of patients and communities

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.

Freshworks Rethinks NoSQL for Rapid Scaling & Cost-EfficiencyScyllaDB
Freshworks creates AI-boosted business software that helps employees work more efficiently and effectively. Managing data across multiple RDBMS and NoSQL databases was already a challenge at their current scale. To prepare for 10X growth, they knew it was time to rethink their database strategy. Learn how they architected a solution that would simplify scaling while keeping costs under control.
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.

I’m Meriel Lenfestey from Ecomodo. This is my husband. No I’m not lending him out. It is also a great metaphor for how some people see the kinds of products and services we’re talking about today. Wholesome, healthy, positive, cheap and socially stimulating. Safe provided certain precautions are taken... But just outside of many people’s comfort zone. I’m here to share some of the thoughts and solutions we have developed at Ecomodo.
Ecomodo.com enables individuals to lend and borrow each other's everyday objects, skills and spaces with confidence. We have a simple goal: To get communities of all types to make better use of the resources they already have.
Exercise – I want you to mentally empty your cupboards, garages, lofts etc into this room. You’ll find sewing machines, surfboards, tools, new gadgets, party gear, catering gear, sports gear, fabulous dresses and shoes, cameras, camping gear, ski clothes and much much more. Add to that your skills and any spaces you have and we have a fantastic resource that always existed but was hidden from view. Imagine the parties you could throw, the hobbies you could try, the jobs you could get done if you could borrow any of that stuff. It would save you money, enrich your life and be more green. Lending and borrowing is good for people, pocket and planet. It encourages social engagement, saves people money and maximises the utility of the resources we already have. The carbon impact of people following their dreams, pursuing their interests and doing the boring jobs can be greatly reduced if people borrow instead of buy. The need for this is illustrated by the amazing fact that the average drill is used for only 12 minutes in its lifetime. The total lifecycle impact from the collection of raw materials, manufacturing and distribution, to disposal is unacceptable when the purchaser was probably within a few metres of an idle drill in a neighbour’s shed. Poor experiences of lost or broken items discourage the sharing of belongings and have given lending and borrowing a poor reputation. As a consequence, lofts, sheds, cupboards and garages across the country are filled with many of the same things, often barely used, collecting dust. Our challenge to collectively reduce consumption was to deliver a service that enables people to lend and borrow confidently, opening up their personal treasure troves for the common good. We know it makes sense financially, socially and environmentally... but... Some real barriers to success. People just don’t behave in this way and the society we live in encourages personal ownership. We recognised that this was a huge design challenge.
Our creds Luckily we are perfectly placed to take on that challenge. As founder of one of the UK’s leading user experience agencies and as experienced interaction designers with experience working with many of the world’s biggest brands, we were able to apply our skills in creating the right user experience through insight driven design to modernising lending and borrowing. Our challenges always revolve around finding and shaping the sweet spot between what people want and what companies want. In this case we were the company and our goals were financial, social and environmental.
Our research created a simple set of goals for the design of Ecomodo. These have remained at the heart of our design process and continue to drive our marketing efforts.
Desire & motivation Need a compelling reason to choose to take part Need to believe in the provider
Choose to lend / borrow Find reasons to lend and borrow for individuals... not rely on our reasons to drive lending and borrowing. We want mass take-up – that means appealing to a broad set of motivations: Earning / saving money Fundraising Social engagement / doing good Opportunity to try new things Reducing consumption Saving space
Believe in Ecomodo When confidence is an issue the desire to join in, and the faith in the provider must be really strong. Once people have engaged with the idea of lending and borrowing, they then need to trust the brand. For a start-up social enterprise this is challenging considering we are competing for consumer attention with retail giants. We work hard to look and behave professionally, get plenty of press & media coverage, and create a buzz using social media. Social media, national press, local press & groups, awards, charities etc... And of course – make it easy to use.
Make people feel comfortable Aside from making it easy to use, we built in various features to drive confidence and iron over points of weakness.
Circles of trust Real-world communities can form lending circles. Circles provide community engagement that feels comfortable to the user by enabling people to restrict their lending (and borrowing) to people they know.
Privacy Protection Fuzzy location specification empowers our members to strike their own balance between privacy & security. Both sides approve before any contact info given
Insurance & Deposits
Lend tracking
End to end facilitation Introduction, negotiation and loan agreement Holding hire fees / deposits in escrow until completion of lend Reminders at key stages
Reputation building Resulting feedback given has real implications as it may relate to people they know.
Deal with problems as they arise No heads in the sand. It’s new, we’re small, people aren’t familiar with the idea and accidents do happen. We remain involved in the lend through to the end and make sure everyone is happy before releasing any funds. For the rare occasion that there is a problem, we have built a dispute resolution system which will identify how to handle most situations. Our technology is not perfect and we’re constantly refining our UI – but we are careful to respond to any problems fast and to try to delight our users with our answers. This all adds to the brand perception and encourages word of mouth take-up.
Conclusion our motives are right, the climate is right, we’ve done all we can to reduce trust issue... Thank you for listening.
