Intelligent Agents for Helping Humanity Reach Its Full PotentialJason Hong
Within fifty years, we will build and deploy highly personalized intelligent agents that can help us find, set, and meet hard goals to improve our lives in meaningful ways that we choose. Think of it as a cross between a lifelong coach, a caring uncle, and an honest and supportive friend. Or, if you are into science fiction, consider it as a combination of Samantha in the movie Her, the Young Lady’s Primer from the book The Diamond Age, and Minds from Iain Bank’s The Culture series. Let’s call this agent Maslow.

Are my Devices Spying on Me? Living in a World of Ubiquitous Computing Jason Hong
Talk Feb2019 at Lakehead University for Rise of the Machines
In the near future, our smart devices will know almost everything about us. These devices offer the opportunity to vastly improve our healthcare, urban planning, safety, and more. However, these same devices also pose dramatic new challenges for privacy and for ethics. In this talk, I'll discuss how these smart devices work, what they can learn about us, and what we need to make sure that the benefits of these technologies vastly outweigh the costs.

and UNICEF’s Digital Strategy
presented at Dialogkonferansen 2014, Strømstad Sweden @JimRosenberg
Other modern technologies at age 20; imagine how far we’ll go with the consumer-facing internet.
Social media is your embassy; a good website is your home country.
Steady, consistent content is essential to engagement.
Owned content > Facebook’s algorithms.
The big picture is comprised of many, many details.
The perfect tweet or flawless video takes time, effort, and money.
People are your greatest asset – your own colleagues, as well as the people you serve.
“People want to be a part of something bigger than themselves.” #H2H by @BryanKramer
If your clients sense you’re open and engaged, they’ll be that way, too. Same goes for your staff.
Principles for Digital Strategy at UNICEF
Digital enables transparency and accountability.
To the online audience, we are one UNICEF with many facets.
We work in a multilingual world. Our content and engagement must reflect that.
Content and engagement efforts should include people with low- or no- internet connectivity.
All products and services should be mobile-first and multiplatform.
Our product approach is agile.
Open standards are at the heart of what we do.
We’ll measure and test our efforts, using data to inform content and engagement choices.
Conversations > Campaigns.
Global frame, local action. Take a global message that national markets/teams can adapt. Messages and calls to action should be easily tailored and localized by language, country.
Have one integrated editorial calendar. Media, marketing, web, social, offline, visuals.
Team: balance all-rounders with deep expertise.
Do fewer things better.
Find the storyteller in the elevator.

To increase the overall knowledge base about the Social and Digital Media Industry.
To understand the strategies adopted by the companies to increase their presence and revenue as a whole.
We have crossed the Rubicon on mobile, and there is no going back. Consumers now spend 51% of their media time – including 40 minutes of video – on mobile devices each day.
And yet, confusion continues to swirl around what buyers can do – at scale – to reach their target audiences on their mobile devices with native, video and location-targeted brand marketing.
How do you put our collective obsession with all things mobile and video to work for your campaigns?

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

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.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

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:

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
