Before we look to the future of technology, we must examine the past.
1983: Apple Lisa
The first commercial computer with a graphical user interface (GUI) — the advance that would finally make computers usable by people with no special training. The name was the acronym for “Local Integrated Software Architecture” and possibly the daughter of someone on the development team (Steve Jobs). The computer was $10,000 and only sold 10,000 of them.
1993: Polaroid, Powerbook and pagers
JVC Video Camcorder, Apple PowerBook 160, Polaroid OneStep, Sony Sports Walkman cassette player and a pager.
2003: The iTunes Music Store was launched.
At the time, “For every 99 cents Apple gets from your credit card, 65 cents goes straight to the music label. Another quarter or so gets eaten up by distribution costs. At most, Jobs is left with a dime per track, so even $500 million in annual sales would add up to a paltry $50 million profit. Why even bother? "Because we're selling iPods," Jobs says, grinning.”

http://www.domainsherpa.com/rob-monster-epik-interview
As a degreed and lifelong student of economics, Rob Monster understands better than most the science of how wealth is produced, consumed and transferred. And he is making good use of that knowledge.
Monster’s successes are numerous, including the sale of his first company, GMI, a market research firm with revenue of $64 million and profits “north of $10 million,” and the development of Healthcare.com, a recently sold information and lead generation portal with revenue of $60 million. But not every venture of Monster’s has been a success, as you will hear about with Patents.com.
Monster draws from these experiences – both the victories and the disappointments – as he works to define a scalable domain development theory that will lead to consistent profits with domain names.
Presentation for the World Internet Project, Warsaw, Poland, 22 Oct 2011. The talk focuses on the rise of 'next generation users' in the UK, but draws comparative observations with findings from Poland.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
- These are slides of the talk given at IEEE International Conference on Software Testing Verification and Validation Workshop, ICSTW 2022.

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

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.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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).

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.

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).

4. the future real vs ideal Technology and ethics visual vs text mashupvs discrete YouTube stats gaming vs lecture AimiEguchi
Come with me back in time through the magic of PowerPoint physics … back to the late 1970s, when a book by Douglas Adams captured the imagination of just about everyone– Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.So – how many of you have read it? Love it? Hate it?I ask this because I was awed by the idea of babelfish – those helpful critters that you put in your ear for real-time translation.(click)
Very cool. But impossible. Real-time translation? In your ear? Yeah. Better settle down and put years in studying another language – and hope no one speaks in a dialect. (click)So you can imagine my unalloyed, indescribable joy when I read Scobleizer last week and came upon this – translate on your iPhone in real-time.Oh, my God! It’s a babelfish, right? So more than 30 years ago, Douglas Adams foresaw iPhones … sort of.My point: Our wildest, most outrageous dreams are the future.Bucknell’s plan for the future contains exciting words: Passion. Innovation. Ethics. Justice. Diversity. Collaboration. All of these apply to social media and how we use it, and I’d like you to listen for those words throughout my presentation.One of my charges today was to look five years into the future of social media. Best way to do that? Well, I thought back to 2006 …
In 2006, I was sitting in the newsroom of the Casper Star-Tribune. The younger people in the newsroom kept telling me I needed to get on myspace. It was huge. Everyone was on it. There was this upstart called Facebook, but it was only for college students. Nothing would ever topple myspace.But now it’s 2011 … (click)Back in 2006, there was no iPhone. (click)But now it’s 2011 … (click)
The future will open up opportunities we have yet to dream of. With those opportunities will come challenges. Rather than talking about future platforms, I thought I’d share some concepts I envision changing the way we look at the world.The first is the real versus the ideal. Just yesterday, I saw an article about AimiEguchi, a popular singer for the Japanese band AKB48. But Aimi … doesn’t exist. She’s computer generated. But while she looks amazingly human, she’s still in that Uncanny Valley of androids and computer-generated characters that we feel uncomfortable around. They look human, but there’s something not quite right …In five years, computer generated characters may no longer have that uncanny quality. We could create the perfect student to be in a university video – someone who looked racially and ethnically ambiguous, was attractive to men and women, and wasn’t prone to youthful misjudgment.But would it be ethical?The latest version of Photoshop now offers us the ability to remove part of a photograph without leaving a trace. The camera may not lie, but the software sure does. We could create a campus without electrical lines, traffic signs, or wastebaskets. But is it ethical? Five years from now, the technology will be even better – but will we have had time to consider the moral and ethical ramifications of tweaking reality? In social media, the ideal situation would be to have control of everything we post, tweet, or Google – that wonderful concept of privacy. In real life,Google and Facebook own us – and follow us. It happens – but is it ethical? When I worked in Philadelphia, one of my co-workers, a photographer, had these words posted on his cubicle: The world speaks in 1993 languages, but it sees in one. We’re on the cusp of an enormous change in how we learn, gather information, and see the world – and it’s through images, rather than words. One of those jaw-dropping statistics: More video is uploaded to YouTube every 60 days than the three major US television networks produced in 60 years. Most cell phones now have not only built-in cameras, but built-in video cameras, some capable of taking high-definition video.For us, it’s a great opportunity – our fans and followers can post photos and videos of their volunteer work, their pets, their families, their trips. What better way to connect alumni with other alumni and with current students? What better way to start conversations among everyone with an interest in Bucknell?The challenge is the temptation to use these images for enforcement. We want to encourage personal growth, we want to engage students, alumni, and friends – but we don’t want to encourage behavior that might reflect poorly on the university. In five years, I see us moving away from the separate concepts of painting, drawing, audio, video, text, and photography and into a world of mashups – of synthesis. It’s an incredible time to be creative and innovative. It also calls into question the idea of intellectual property – can we create and own simultaneously?Education itself will change as gaming becomes a way to learn. Already some students are learning foreign languages idiomatically by playing World of Warcraft with foreign players. Flight simulators teach people how to fly without ever leaving the ground – and without the possibility of a truly fatal error. Innovative? Yes. But how do we channel that passion and creativity into a workday world that may not share the same values?
But perhaps one of our biggest future challenges may be the filter bubble – the algorithms that, more and more, show us only what we’re comfortable seeing, only the people who share our views. It’s like looking into a mirror that reflects a mirror that reflects a mirror … an endless gallery of “me.” It’s the antithesis of diversity. We need to develop tricks to break through this bubble and to learn more about the world outside.
That said, what can we do now to stay a step ahead of the social media game? Daniel Pink, author of “A Whole New Mind,” believes that we need to stop relying on one side of our brains. Instead, he suggests, we need to use both sides of our brain – our whole brain, if you will, a synthesis of right and left.In a way, we’ll be going back to the days when we looked at a tree limb and saw a tool. We’ll need to look at everything with new eyes – a beginner’s mind. Right now, we need to propose scenarios for the future – and think through the ethics involved. We need to develop true visual literacy – not just recognizing objects, but understanding what they mean in context, the way we distinguish now between propaganda and balanced writing. We need to build our creative muscles in every area so we can run with the future, not just chase after it.Innovation, passion, engagement, personal growth, ethical responsibility, collaboration, and diversity. Those are the qualities we need to carry into the future.
But that’s all in the future. What can we do to advance our mission now?We can seek out emerging platforms and begin to play with them, learn their strengths and weaknesses, find out who uses them and why. Social media is much more than Facebook, Twitter, and Google+. We need to seek out diversity.We can target specific content to specific platforms, just as we’ve targeted media outlets in the past, and going beyond rewriting information for Facebook and Twitter.We can become open to collaboration not just between students or within units, but between students, faculty, and staff and across departments, disciplines, and the entire university.We can engage our fans and followers by asking questions and encouraging them to tell their stories, to stoke the passion for education and for Bucknell.Finally, we can listen to what our fans and followers are saying and use that to inform our decisions about what we present and how we present it.I watched Bucknell’s video of physicist Brian Greene, who said, “It’s not enough to search for the solution. We have to think about the questions.”The more questions we ask ourselves and our communities today, the more answers we listen to, the more we work together, the easier it will be to advance our mission now and in the future.
