What do Young people care about in Politics? My ManifestoBite The Ballot
What do Young people care about in Politics?
My Manifesto is not a representative sample of
the youth vote in the UK. Our resources were
limited, and as such many hurdles were met
along the way – however, over 5000 young
people, most of whom were not previously
interested or engaging in politics at all, have
helped shape this booklet through surveys,
focus groups and our Rock Enrol national tour.
It is built with their life experiences, our
experiences in the sector, and the experience
of our collaborators, in mind.
We hope more than anything that this is food
for thought, and can inspire everyone to see
the true value of the youth vote.
Bite the Ballot aims to encourage young
people to make informed decisions at the
ballot box. We want to inspire young people
to take ownership of their individual and
collective futures and become the generation
that champions change in politics.
We aspire to reverse the pattern of poor
electoral turnout, and in giving young people
a voice, we hope to make their votes and
opinions count in the political arena.

Health Promotion Campaign presentation
National University
COH 430
Introduction
Approximately 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer during her life, making breast cancer the most common cancer in women within the U.S. (CDC)
Although very rare, women below the age of 45 can be diagnosed.
Many young women are not aware of the risks they may run in having breast cancer and therefore also don’t know the ways to manage their risks.
Thus the CDC launched the Bring Your Brave campaign in 2015, to be able to bring awareness and adequate information to women specifically those that are 45 and younger.
Introduction continued
The campaign has a target audience of women ages 18 to 44 focusing on those who are predisposed by having a family history of breast cancer.
In addition, the campaign also helps educate health care providers on how to help their patients who are high risk on how to manage and deal with these risk factors.
Interpersonal Channel
This channel is how the relationship can affect how receptive someone is to health messages being provided to them.
This channel is far more likely to be trusted than a media source.
For example, having a patient hear something related to her health from her doctor would help her more than if she read about it on social media.
Continued
A good way to envision this type of channel would be this example of Cara.
Being able to seek help through professionals one is comfortable is extremely helpful.
Having a connection to a health provider or counselor allows patients to feel more connected and receptive of information compared to hearing it from someone they don’t trust.
It can help patients come to term with their diagnoses and how to move forward after it.

A group channel include small number of people who are receiving the same educational message that are going through the same health issue. Some methods include; Support groups, seminars, and a class. In regards to Bring your Brave campaign I believe the best way to disseminate the message or material to a group is first to identify the intended audience, in this health promotion the intended audience will be women age 18- 45. The method in which I would reach the intended audience is a printed material. More specifically a poster. Posters are “good at raising awareness and communicating limited amounts of health information” (Bensley & Brookins -Fisher 2009). Posters are more expensive but are important as they can be placed in multiple locations : community centers, medical offices, on the bus, etc. Posters typically possess bold colors, Big or bolded font for important messages, and many pictures.

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.

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.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.

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.
