Server-Side JavaScript
Server-side JavaScript (SSJS) allows you to run JavaScript on the server. This opens opportunities to access databases, files, and perform other server-side tasks from JavaScript. The two main SSJS platforms are Rhino, which runs JavaScript on the Java Virtual Machine, and Jaxer, an open-source platform based on Mozilla Firefox code. Using SSJS, existing JavaScript skills become more valuable as they can be applied to both client-side and server-side development without additional cross-browser issues.
Gathering SW Indicators
This document discusses gathering software indicators from configuration management (CM) and bug tracking tools. It identifies CM as the primary source for reliable indicator data since all changes must go through CM. It lists various raw data that can be collected from source code, bug tracking, and CM systems. It then provides formulas for calculating indicators from this raw data, such as writing pressure, size of modules, average task age, and quality of work. The goal is to automate data collection and analysis to provide insights into a software project's quality, reliability, and development efforts over time.
Strategic Sourcing (Talent Acquisition): Revisited, Re-Defined, & Game-Planned
This document discusses strategic sourcing and how it differs from traditional sourcing. It defines strategic sourcing as taking a long-term strategic approach to talent acquisition, rather than just focusing on short-term tactics. The document provides a 6-step process for companies to take a more strategic approach: 1) Identify critical roles, 2) Identify pivotal roles, 3) Evaluate cost of hire data, 4) Map roles on a talent segmentation matrix, 5) Apply portfolio theory, and 6) Implement strategic sourcing elements like proactive talent pipelining. Taking this strategic approach can help companies gain a competitive advantage in hiring.

Impossible
Always remember that what seems impossible has often simply not been tried yet. Many things that were once thought impossible have been accomplished by those willing to challenge themselves and push boundaries. Keep an open mind and don't limit your potential before testing your own abilities.

This document summarizes the impact of the global recession on businesses, including the IT sector. It provides economic data on interest rates, inflation rates, and GDP growth for various countries. It then discusses options for businesses to face the challenges, such as turning the crisis into an opportunity through entrepreneurship and optimizing resources through software-as-a-service solutions. Specific sectors that will be most and least affected are identified. The document concludes with a question and answer section.
Seeing Influence and Visualizing Buzz
To date, defining "Influence" has been associated with the black art of "lies, damned lies, and statistics." 'Buzz metrics' have been a noble attempt to apply Google's PageRank (PR) algorithm to identifying Influence, but there's a small problem - it doesn't work, and it never did . . . at least not when we evaluate social interaction. Influence is contextual, specific, often short-lived, and lies manifests within a network. If we each have 5 RTs and @Mentions, we're not equally "Influential", although the Google PR may rank us as such. The paradigm shift is from PageRank to PeopleRank, and the latter is all about visualization. Seeing Influence is all about moving beyond mathematical rankings, and in this case, pictures are truly worth a thousand words. In this session, you'll learn how to visually map out a conversation network of social interaction, in addition to identifying where "Influence" truly lies. Being able to visualize the social structure and pattern of Influence will open your mind to a world of new possibilities with Social Media. What to do with this knowledge will depend on your goals and objectives, but one thing is for sure - you'll never see Influence in quite the same light again.
R4 Modern Day Talent Acquisition
Joshua Letourneau of LG & Associates presents a gameplan for establishing a Strategic Sourcing Framework at your organization. As always, the endgame is hiring more great-fit talent in less time for less cost than your competition, not to mention retaining them longer while achieving peak engagement.
Scalability In PHP
The document discusses optimizing PHP code and applications for scalability. It identifies bad coding practices to avoid, such as not using opcode caching. It recommends using opcode caching like APC to pre-compile and cache code for faster execution. It also suggests ways to speed up databases, such as tuning, and describes building a scalable infrastructure using technologies like Gearman for distributed task processing and Aptana Cloud.
