Webinar: Driving Action with Video: Storytelling Production Tips with DoSomet...TechSoup
Storytelling and video production don't have to be hard. Regardless of what resources and budget you have, you have the ability to tell an amazing story. You'll learn how to create low-fi and high-fi video content while crushing your goals. Help your organization drive action and real impact through video storytelling and production. Join DoSomething.org's Creative Director, Keri Goff, as she talks through best practices and case studies.
The document discusses how an organization wanted to consult all stakeholders for a new three-year strategy but needed to do so on short notice. It describes how the organization worked with Greenpeace and the Digital Workshopper to organize online workshops over two weeks to consult over 500 stakeholders from different groups. The workshops allowed participants to post ideas and comments on a forum from any location over the course of a week. This enabled the organization to get insights from stakeholders to help form their new strategy within a short timeframe.

You might have heard about a community, be or been part of a community, or built a community.
How easy is it do you think to build and engage with this community? It is actually super simple. It is easy to create any community but not the one that shares the same value, respects every community member, handles spam well, and most importantly helps each other willingly.
The perfect community is built on Empathy. For example, welcoming every new member and appreciating their first post is seen as an empathy and builds their trust on the community, from the very beginning of their participation. Also, it has a power of turning a negative conversation into a positive one just by start hearing them without judging. In this session, let us see why is it important and how it can be implemented in your community.

Queridas amigas,
Tenéis en vuestras manos una nueva edición de Cuadernos de Mujer cuyo objetivo sigue siendo el desarrollo integral de la mujer y la profundización en nuestro ser femenino.
Este documento presenta biografías resumidas de dos políticos influyentes del siglo XX: Harry S. Truman y Vladimir Lenin. Resume que Truman fue presidente de Estados Unidos de 1945 a 1953, estableció la doctrina de contención del comunismo y lideró al país durante la Guerra Fría y la Guerra de Corea. Lenin fue el líder bolchevique de la Unión Soviética, fundador del estado soviético y creador del leninismo, una interpretación del marxismo que caracterizó la revolución rusa de 1917.
the World Climate Summit held in Paris, our Prime Minister committed
to a sustainable lifestyle as a way to reduce the global warming.
To make this commitment a reality, we have conceptualized a novel idea to
rejuvenate the rural economy with a carbon negative agricultural produce
that can generate tremendous job opportunities at the village level, which
will stop farmers from committing suicide and mass migration from villages
to the cities.
Using better cultivation method, like water harvesting, producing bio
charcoal and compost to increase land fertility organically, we aim to
reduce the dependency on hazardous fossil fuels, plastics, cottons, paper
from wood pulp, concrete and other degradable products, that causes
havoc to our ecology.
From food, cloth, paper, building material, biodegradable plastics, fuel oil;
everything should be generated from the fields of rural India and
processed at the village level to sustain the ever growing needs of the
modern civilization.
On 19th March, our PM at the Pusa Agricultural Fair suggested the farmers
to not only do farming but also do something else.......
This project could be that- “farming + something else" our PM was
referring to, and could also fulfill our obligation to create a sustainable lifestyle.

Tried & tested ways to make your event more share-worthyAisha Kellaway
There's a big difference between "doing" social media and running a successful social media campaign. This workshop was delivered at EventLAB 2017 and provided a framework for attendees to create their own social media strategy - helping them to work out the event challenges they hope social media can address or help them overcome, and how to turn that goal into a targeted campaign.
Points of reference and examples from my time working with BrightonSEO were used, but attendees were urged to think critically about whether these tactics would translate to their own events and campaigns.
The document provides tips for engaging team members to create powerful content. It discusses focusing on quality over perfection, keeping content short and pertinent, explaining concepts without assuming knowledge, and thinking about why the content matters and who cares. It emphasizes helping content creators who are subject matter experts but not communications professionals, providing constructive feedback, finding motivators, and investing in training. Success is measured not just by metrics but by influencing the intended audience and gaining skills.
The document discusses how the Women in Agile organization used lean startup and product kata principles to address the lack of gender diversity in the agile community. They conducted experiments like open spaces and dinners to understand the problem. Research found women felt intimidated by the lack of diversity. The organization's goal was then to increase diversity and inclusion through initiatives like conference allyship programs, launching new voices, and seeding local meetup groups to create accessible connections at scale. This supported empowering more women to share their ideas and skills within the agile community.
7 Days of Genius: March 5-12, 2017
This March, 92nd Street Y launches 7 Days of Genius — a weeklong festival that connects people around the world to explore the concept of genius for social good through live events, community meet ups in 50+ locations, digital and broadcast content.
This year’s 7 Days of Genius theme is Create for Good. We’ve identified 7 global challenges: health and wellness, empathy, access to the arts, migration and displacement, reliable news and information, sustainable cities, and equality. We will use these themes as a jumping off point to discuss, debate and identify “genius” solutions to the issues we all face.
Join us by organizing a meet-up or event for your community around one of the 7 challenges above. Then, share your ideas/photos/comments on social media with #7DaysofGenius. 92Y will retweet and share.

Open Innovation: What Companies Can Learn from Open Source Communities Alessio Fattorini
This document discusses what companies can learn from open source communities based on Nethesis' experience creating an open source project. Some key lessons include: giving to the community before expecting anything in return to build trust; putting people over code and focusing on community management; being welcoming, inclusive, and transparent; listening to community feedback; and involving community members in development and support to foster innovation. Building a strong community takes time but can provide major benefits like feedback, testing, content, and word-of-mouth marketing that help products improve and companies succeed.
Rob Francis - “Conversation not consultation – building collaborative communi...Alexis May
This document discusses approaches to community engagement and collaboration. It argues that true transformation requires "change out there" through citizen skills and networks, as well as new forms of agency-community collaboration. Effective engagement is an open conversation that invites participation, allows momentum to build, and makes connections rather than relying solely on consultations. The document outlines engagement approaches like asset mapping and ideas farms that generate ideas and connections. However, it cautions that engagement only works if organizations are willing to act on community input outside typical processes and priorities. It promotes developing a "collaborative sphere" where informal relationships and discussion can lead to grassroots action.
The document outlines the agenda for a social media training session, which includes topics such as setting objectives for social media, developing social content and communities, different types of social media users, gamification, big data, and leadership blogging and social networking. The agenda covers strategies and hands-on demonstrations for a variety of social media concepts and tools over a full-day training session.

Open innovation - What companies can learn from open source communitiesAlessio Fattorini
This document discusses how companies can benefit from open source communities. It argues that open source is not just for geeks or moochers, but is a model for innovation. Open source communities provide feedback, testing, content and development assistance. Companies should build communities by starting small, being welcoming and inclusive, listening to members, and having an open development process. While challenging, community can set companies apart, redefine markets, and inspire loyalty if made a core part of the business.

High performance Serverless Java on AWS- GoTo Amsterdam 2024Vadym Kazulkin
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

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.
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.

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
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.
Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024Hiroshi SHIBATA
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.
