Customer interviews are also highlighted as a way to ensure the product solves real problems for users.
The liver is the largest internal organ, located in the upper right abdomen. It performs over 200 functions including storing nutrients, secreting bile, and synthesizing proteins and cholesterol. The liver creates bile which is composed of water, ions, bile acids, and organic molecules. Bile emulsifies fats during digestion so they can be absorbed by the small intestine. The liver also processes waste from red blood cell breakdown and other metabolic activities.

This document provides exercises to practice using time expressions with the present perfect and past simple tenses. It lists 14 time expressions and asks the student to make sentences using each expression in either the present perfect or past simple tense correctly. It also provides a table to fill in with the time expressions in the appropriate tense. The goal is to practice using time expressions to distinguish between the present perfect and past simple tenses.

Here are the slides from my virtual workshop: Power Up Your Visibility with Keywords.
One of the biggest problems for small businesses is getting more qualified clients and customers to find you. You know they’re out there, but attracting them is a whole other story.
In the race to use social media many businesses have ignored one of the most powerful marketing tools at our disposal: Google!
The fact is, you don’t have to run expensive Google ads to attract the people you want to do business with. You need to use the words and phrases that your ideal customers are using so you can be right there when they need you most.

Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024Hiroshi SHIBATA
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.

In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.
This presentation provides valuable insights into effective cost-saving techniques on AWS. Learn how to optimize your AWS resources by rightsizing, increasing elasticity, picking the right storage class, and choosing the best pricing model. Additionally, discover essential governance mechanisms to ensure continuous cost efficiency.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

8. CHURN DETERMINES SAAS SIZE
If you have 10,000 customers
and 5% leave a year
then you need 500 new ones just to stay level
(so your signup rate determines your company size)

WHAT WE LEARNED
76. Peter Nixey @peternixey peternixey.com
BIG PLANS MEAN BIG CHURN
You will spend time...
• designing features you may never build
• discussing features you may never build
• avoiding useful features because you
“need to get old stuff done”
81. Peter Nixey @peternixey peternixey.com
WAYSTO LIMIT CHURN
• Do it in 2 weeks or delete it
• Keep a separate feature wishlist
• Ban discussion on things which aren’t on the
plan

MINIMISE PEOPLE
MAXIMISE CROSS-DISCIPLINE
CULL YOUR BACKLOG RUTHLESSLY
134. Peter Nixey @peternixey peternixey.com
• Work in genuine 2 week sprints
