Sugarpop the sugar maple tree wakes from his winter sleep to find that Olivia the cardinal has made her nest near his tree. Olivia has laid eggs and is caring for her babies when loggers arrive to cut down trees in the forest. Sugarpop, Olivia, and their friends worry that the forest and nests will be destroyed. However, Grandfather Tree reassures them that the forest belongs to the local school and the children will not allow it to be destroyed as they love the forest. The loggers leave without cutting down more trees, and the children arrive, showing their love for the forest has protected it.
Goldilocks
Goldilocks had curly yellow hair and a pretty smile. While skipping through the woods one day, she came upon the small house of the three bears. With the bears away, Goldilocks went inside and tried their bowls of porridge, chairs, and beds, finding the small portions to be just right. When the bears returned home, they discovered Goldilocks asleep in Baby Bear's bed. She woke with a fright and ran away, never returning to the bears' house again.
Mr
The story is about a green caterpillar that goes on a strange adventure where it eats different foods and changes color - eating a banana turns its head yellow, an apple turns it red, and water turns it blue. It then eats an orange and becomes orange with many colors. A black bird sees the caterpillar and wants to eat it, frightening the caterpillar. However, it wakes up and realizes it was all just a bad dream, returning to its original green color.
Goldilocks and the three bears ppt
This story summarizes the classic fairy tale "Goldilocks and the Three Bears". Goldilocks goes for a walk in the forest and finds an empty house belonging to three bears. She samples their porridge, chairs, and beds, finding that one of each is "just right". When the bears return home, they discover signs that someone has been using their belongings. They identify Goldilocks sleeping in Baby Bear's bed, and she awakens and flees in fear back into the forest.
The Fox
The fox sees some grapes hanging high in a vineyard and tries jumping to reach them but fails. After multiple attempts with running starts, his legs hurt and it's getting dark. As he walks away, he decides the grapes must be sour anyway and not worth eating, though really he couldn't reach them. The moral is that when we can't get what we want, we often convince ourselves it wasn't valuable after all.

Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024
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.

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.
Choosing The Best AWS Service For Your Website + API.pptx
Have you ever been confused by the myriad of choices offered by AWS for hosting a website or an API?
Lambda, Elastic Beanstalk, Lightsail, Amplify, S3 (and more!) can each host websites + APIs. But which one should we choose?
Which one is cheapest? Which one is fastest? Which one will scale to meet our needs?
Join me in this session as we dive into each AWS hosting service to determine which one is best for your scenario and explain why!
Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
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.

Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their Mainframe
Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market.
Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.
Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
