"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
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.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Look up and practise unfamiliar words.
Moisten your throat; sip some plain water.
Rehearse the opening and closing lines thoroughly.
Face the audience, not the screen.
Speak louder but more slowly than usual.
Be ready with a shortened version.
21. Vary your speed (120–200 words/min)
XTML standards are as follows (in wpm, or words
per minute): Extra slow: 80, Slow: 120,
Medium: 180–200, Fast: 300
Audiobooks standard: 150–160 wpm
Slow Martin Luther King: 84–92 wpm
Medium Michael Pollan: 187 wpm
Fast Daniel Gilbert: 195 wpm
Very fast Michael Shermer: 210 wpm
22. Martin Luther King (84–92 wpm) : 1/2
Five score years ago, a great American, in whose
symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the
Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree
came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of
Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of
withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to
end the long night of their captivity.
23. Martin Luther King (84–92 wpm): 2/2
But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free. One hundred
years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the
manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. One
hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in
the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. One hundred years
later, the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society
and finds himself an exile in his own land. And so we’ve come here
today to dramatize a shameful condition.
24. Michael Pollan: 135 wpm
That plants are good for humans to eat probably doesn’t need much
elaboration, but the story of vitamin C, an anti-oxidant we depend
primarily on plants to supply us, points to the evolutionary reasons
why this might have become the case. Way back in evolution, our
ancestors possessed the biological ability to make vitamin C, an
essential nutrient, from scratch. Like other antioxidants, vitamin C,
or ascorbic acid, contributes to our health in at least two important
ways.
25. Daniel Gilbert: 195 wpm
When you have 21 minutes to speak, two million
years seems like a really long time. But
evolutionarily, two million years is nothing. And yet in
two million years the human brain has nearly tripled
in mass, What is it about a big brain that nature was
so eager for every one of us to have one?
26. Michael Shermer: 210 wpm
Hey, I am Michael Shermer, the director of the Skeptics
Society, the publisher of Skeptic magazine. We investigate
claims of the paranormal, pseudo-science, and fringe
groups and cults and claims of all kinds between: science
and pseudo-science and non-science and junk science,
voodoo science, pathological science, bad science, non-
science and plain old nonsense. And unless you've been on
Mars recently, you know there's a lot of that out there.
27. Handle questions tactfully
End clearly and emphatically.
Consult the chair as appropriate.
Repeat the question for the audience;
rephrase it if necessary.
Avoid arguments; as you finish replying, look at
somebody other than the persistent questioner.

36. Hans Rosling: 187 wpm [1 of 2]
About 10 years ago, I took on the task to teach global development
to Swedish undergraduate students. That was after having spent
about 20 years together with African institutions studying hunger in
Africa, so I was sort of expected to know a little about the world. And
I started in our medical university, Karolinska Institute, an
undergraduate course called Global Health. But when you get that
opportunity, you get a little nervous. I thought, these students
coming to us actually have the highest grade you can get in Swedish
college systems -- so I thought maybe they know everything I'm
going to teach them about. So I did a pre-test when they came. And
one of the questions from which I learnt a lot was this one: "Which
country has the highest child mortality of these five pairs?
37. Hans Rosling: 187 wpm [2 of 2]
And I put them together, so that in each pair of country, one has
twice the child mortality of the other. And this means that it’s much
bigger a difference than the uncertainty of the data. I won’t put you
at a test here, but it’s Turkey, which is highest
there, Poland, Russia, Pakistan and South Africa. And these were
the results of the Swedish students. I did it so I got the confidence
interval, which is pretty narrow, and I got happy, of course: a 1.8
right answer out of five possible. That means that there was a place
for a professor of international health -- (Laughter) and for my
course.
38. Wise men talk because
they have something to
say; fools, because they
have to say something
