We are finally starting to think about how touchscreen devices really work, and design proper sized targets, think about touch as different from mouse selection, and to create common gesture libraries.
But despite this we still forget the user. Fingers and thumbs take up space, and cover the screen. Corners of screens have different accuracy than the center. It's time to re-evaluate what we think we know.
Steven reviews his ongoing research into how people actually interact with mobile devices, presents some new ideas on how we can design to avoid errors and take advantage of this new knowledge, and leaves you with 10 (relatively) simple steps to improve your touchscreen designs tomorrow.
You are dumb at the internet. You don't know what will go viral. We don't either. But we are slighter less dumber. So here's a bunch of stuff we learned that will help you be less dumb too.

The What If Technique presented by Motivate DesignMotivate Design
Why "What If"...?
The What If Technique tackles the challenge of engaging a creative, disruptive mindset when it comes to design thinking and crafting innovative user experiences.
Thinking disruptively is a disruptive thing to do, which means it's a very hard thing to do, especially when you add in risk-averse business leaders and company cultures, who hold on tight to psychological blocks, corporate lore, and excuse personas that stifle creativity and possibilities (see www.motivatedesign.com/what-if for more details).
The What If Technique offers key steps, tools and examples to help you achieve incremental changes that promote disruptive thinking, overcome barriers to creativity, and lead to big, innovative differences for business leaders, companies, and ultimately user experiences and products.
Let's find out what's what together! Explore your "What Ifs" with us. See www.motivatedesign.com/what-if for details about the What If Technique, studio workshops, the book, case studies and more downloads--including a the sample chapter "Corporate Lore and Blocks to Creativity"

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images

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).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

The Metaverse and AI: how can decision-makers harness the Metaverse for their...Jen Stirrup
The Metaverse is popularized in science fiction, and now it is becoming closer to being a part of our daily lives through the use of social media and shopping companies. How can businesses survive in a world where Artificial Intelligence is becoming the present as well as the future of technology, and how does the Metaverse fit into business strategy when futurist ideas are developing into reality at accelerated rates? How do we do this when our data isn't up to scratch? How can we move towards success with our data so we are set up for the Metaverse when it arrives?
How can you help your company evolve, adapt, and succeed using Artificial Intelligence and the Metaverse to stay ahead of the competition? What are the potential issues, complications, and benefits that these technologies could bring to us and our organizations? In this session, Jen Stirrup will explain how to start thinking about these technologies as an organisation.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
2. narrative
•
INTRODUCTION- TO START OF WITH, WE HAVE THE TWO
BROTHER TOGETHER AT A SHOP. THEY THEN GO DOWN THE
ALLEY WAY FOR AN EXTRAORDINARY THING TO HAPPEN IN
AN ORDINARY SITUATION.
•
MIDDLE- THERE IS THEN A TRANSITION TO A FEW MONTHS
LATER, WITH THE MAIN CHARACTER WITH A FEW MATES AT
A CAFE/SHOP (NOT DECIDED) THEN WALKING HOME. MAIN
PROTAGONIST IS WALKING DOWN THE ALLEY WHERE THE
ACCIDENT HAPPENED AND STARTS HAVING FLASHBACKS OF
THE MOMENT.
•
END- AFTER ALL THE FLASHBACKS HAVE OCCURRED, THE
MAIN CHARACTER COMES FACE TO FACE WITH THE
ANTAGONIST AND HIS IDENTITY IS REVEALED
3. GENERIC CONVENTIONS
OF THRILLERS
•
LOW KEY LIGHTING-
•
THIS IS WHAT WE WILL USE DOWN THE ALLEYWAY (FILM IN SLIGHT
DARKNESS). THIS IS TO CONNOTE A DARK MOOD THROUGH THE USE OF
DARK ALLEYWAY TO SUGGEST HIDDEN SECRETS AND TO ADD TO THE
HIDDEN IDENTITY OF THE ANTAGONIST WHO HE IS RUNNING FROM.
•
NARRATIVE ENIGMA-
•
THE ENIGMA IS SET UP AT THE START OF THE FILM WHAT HAPPENS TO
THE BROTHER?
•
ANOTHER NARRATIVE ENIGMA IS THE HIDDEN IDENTITY OF THE THIRD
CHARACTER WHICH CREATES MORE INTEREST AND MAKES THE VIEWER
THINK WHY IS HE HIDDEN?
•
THE FINAL NARRATIVE ENIGMA IS WHY DID THE BROTHER DIE?
•
THE PROTAGONIST HAS A WEAKNESS OF ANXIETY. THIS IS SHOWN IN THE
FLASHBACKS WHICH HE HAS.
4. Characters
• THE PROTAGONIST- TEENAGER, ANXIETY
PROBLEMS (FLASHBACKS), MAIN CHARACTER
INTRODUCED AT THE START.

OF HIM IN THE FLASHBACKS
• THE BROTHER WHO IS ONLY SEEN IN THE
FIRST SHOT AND THE FLASHBACKS
5. LOCATION/SETTING
• OUR FILM IS GOING TO BE SET DOWN A
DARK ALLEY. THIS IS TO REFINE THE
LOCATION AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE TO
CREATE CONCENTRATION ON THAT
PARTICULAR AREA.
• WE ARE ALSO GOING TO USE OUTSIDE
THE SHOP TO SHOW THAT IT IS AN
ORDANY, EVERY DAY SITUATION TO
START OFF WITH.
6. PROPS AND CLOTHING
• CLOTHING
•
THE BROTHERS ARE GOING TO BE WEARING VERY CASUAL CLOTHING, TO
SIGNIFY THAT THEY ARE JUST NORMAL PEOPLE IN THE STREET.

WEAPON-THIS WILL BE USED IN THE DEATH SCENE WHICH OCCURS DURING
THE FLASHBACKS.
•
MONEY FOR WHEN ONE OF THE BROTHERS GOES INTO THE SHOP AND BUYS A
DRINK
•
CIGARETTES TO SHOW THEY ARE CAUSAL PEOPLE.
•
WALLET TO CARRY THE MONEY IN
7. SOUND
•
FLASHBACK NOISE-THIS IS WHEN A BOMB GOES OFF AND ALL
OF THE PROTAGONISTS HEARING IS DISTORTED. THIS IS TO
PUT THE VIEWERS IN HIS MIND AND ESPECIALLY BRINGS OUT
HIS ANXIETY ISSUE. (NON DIEGETIC)
•
HEAVY BREATHING- FROM THE PROTAGONIST TO SIGNIFY
TERROR. (NON DIEGETIC)
•
FOOTSTEPS-WHEN THE BROTHER IS WALKING DOWN THE
ALLEY THE SECOND TIME TO SHOW HE IS SCARED AND
WANTS TO GET BACK TO HIS HOME QUICKLY. (DIEGETIC)
•
POSSIBILITY OF MUSIC ASSED IN TO MAKES THE SCENE MORE
ENTERTAINING AND THE VIEWER DOESN’T LOSE INTEREST. IT
WILL BE SLOW MUSIC TO FIN IN WITH THE GENRE (NON
DIEGETIC)
8. CAMERA AND EDITING
•
CAMERA
•
THERE WILL AN ESTABLISHING SHOT AT THE START OF THE FILM AND AFTER THE
TRANSITION.

OVER THE SHOULDER, FIRSTLY WHEN HE GOES INTO THE SHOP, SECONDLY WHEN
THE BROTHER RUNS AWAY WE HAVE AN OVER THE SHOULDER OF THE KILLER
AND SAME AGAIN WHEN THE KILLER SEES THE PROTAGONIST WALKING DOWN
THE ALLEY HAVING THE FLASHBACKS.
•
EDITING
•
DURING THE FLASHBACKS THERE WILL BE QUICK CUTS TO SHOW THEY ARE
SHORT SNAPPY FLASHBACKS
