Bengal tigers are an endangered species, with less than 3000 remaining worldwide. Poachers hunt tigers for their body parts, further reducing the population. Habitat loss also threatens tigers as some are removed from their natural environment.
The document summarizes various aspects of tigers including their physical features, habitat, diet, subspecies, and life cycle. Tigers have stripes that help them camouflage and can kill strong animals. They have large claws and weigh up to 440 pounds. Tigers mark their private territories and hunt prey from tall grass or behind rocks, attacking when within 30 feet. The Malayan tiger was discovered to be a separate subspecies from the Indochinese tiger in 2004. Female tigers roar to attract males, and while often rough, tigers can also be calm and gentle at times.
The Bengal tiger is a endangered species native to India and surrounding areas. It faces threats of habitat loss as humans clear land for settlements and agriculture. Poaching is also a major threat, as tigers are killed for traditional medicines and their skins are sold on the black market. Conservationists are working to protect tigers and preserve the balance of ecosystems, while poachers seek tiger parts for profit. The future of Bengal tigers remains uncertain but increased conservation efforts could help the species recover from the brink of extinction.
Tigers are the largest felines in the world, with different species found across forests and jungles in Asia and Siberia. They have brown and white fur with black stripes and sharp teeth and claws to hunt prey like deer, boars, monkeys and fish. Though dangerous solitary animals, tigers are threatened by hunters and hide among the trees to avoid detection using their camouflaging fur colors.
Bengal Tigers live in jungles and grasslands in parts of South and Southeast Asia. They are carnivores that hunt deer, pigs, and other large prey at dawn and dusk. Males do not help raise cubs. Females give birth to litters of 1-4 cubs and care for them alone for 2-4 years. Tigers are threatened by poaching and loss of habitat. If these threats continue, Bengal Tigers could become extinct by 2022.
This document discusses the Bengal tiger. It provides information on the tiger's classification, distribution, habitat, ecology, behavior, hunting habits, reproduction, current status, threats and conservation efforts. The Bengal tiger is found primarily in India and surrounding countries. It faces threats from habitat loss, human-wildlife conflict, poaching and population growth. Conservation programs aim to protect tiger habitats and populations to try to reverse their declining numbers.
Your search for a wildlife tour in India ends here. The land that abounds with both human and wildlife population welcomes you to its lush woods. Whenever the call of the wild beckons you, let go of the worldly cares and book yourself into a jungle retreat.
The Siberian tiger lives in forests, grasslands, and other biomes in southern Korea, China, and Russia. It is nocturnal and hunts deer, boars, and other animals alone rather than sharing food. While its retractable claws help protect it, the Siberian tiger is endangered due to hunting for its fur, bones and meat as well as loss of habitat from fires. Conservation efforts under CITES aim to help protect the species through education to reduce these threats, but the future remains dire as it may go extinct within a few years.
This document identifies and describes 7 species of rasbora fish:
1. Pygmy rasbora which is the smallest and prefers dense foliage and dim lighting.
2. Red tailed rasbora which has a dark line along its anal fin and males have red tails.
3. Hariquin rasbora which has an unusual reddish copper body and red dorsal fin with yellow tip.
4. Slender rasbora which is very common in India and Sri Lanka pools and streams and is active and hardy.

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).
"$10 thousand per minute of downtime: architecture, queues, streaming and fin...Fwdays
Direct losses from downtime in 1 minute = $5-$10 thousand dollars. Reputation is priceless.
As part of the talk, we will consider the architectural strategies necessary for the development of highly loaded fintech solutions. We will focus on using queues and streaming to efficiently work and manage large amounts of data in real-time and to minimize latency.
We will focus special attention on the architectural patterns used in the design of the fintech system, microservices and event-driven architecture, which ensure scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency of the entire system.
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.
zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

This LF Energy webinar took place June 20, 2024. It featured:
-Alex Thornton, LF Energy
-Hallie Cramer, Google
-Daniel Roesler, UtilityAPI
-Henry Richardson, WattTime
In response to the urgency and scale required to effectively address climate change, open source solutions offer significant potential for driving innovation and progress. Currently, there is a growing demand for standardization and interoperability in energy data and modeling. Open source standards and specifications within the energy sector can also alleviate challenges associated with data fragmentation, transparency, and accessibility. At the same time, it is crucial to consider privacy and security concerns throughout the development of open source platforms.
This webinar will delve into the motivations behind establishing LF Energy’s Carbon Data Specification Consortium. It will provide an overview of the draft specifications and the ongoing progress made by the respective working groups.
Three primary specifications will be discussed:
-Discovery and client registration, emphasizing transparent processes and secure and private access
-Customer data, centering around customer tariffs, bills, energy usage, and full consumption disclosure
-Power systems data, focusing on grid data, inclusive of transmission and distribution networks, generation, intergrid power flows, and market settlement data
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.

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 Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) invited Taylor Paschal, Knowledge & Information Management Consultant at Enterprise Knowledge, to speak at a Knowledge Management Lunch and Learn hosted on June 12, 2024.
