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.

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).
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. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

19. Some Potential Landmines and How to Tackle Them
● “You don’t have former PM experience”
○ Focus on elements of your current role that are applicable to the PM role.
● “We need someone to hit the ground running”
○ Get into the details: What are their top priorities? How do they define success?
○ Express your appetite to do more and learn
● “You’re not a PM. What value do you bring to the table?”
○ Focus on key aspects about your current role - Product knowledge, customer knowledge,
competitive, messaging/positioning etc
21. First week/month: Questions on your mind
1. What are the team dynamics within the PM team?
2. What is my role?
3. Who are my partners/counterparts?
4. What makes me valuable?

7. When in doubt, who do I ask ?
8. Do I need additional training to be better at my job?
9. Where can I find supporting resources?

22. Challenges and Possible Mitigations
Challenge: Lack of clarity about the role/ownership
Solution: Meet your manager as soon as you can to understand his/her
expectations of you and document your shared understanding
Challenge: Insufficient knowledge about PM best practices
Solution: PM training should start before you interview. Enroll in formal training.
Read books - interviews, best practices, blogs etc
Challenge: How can I add value?
Solution: Think about your role before PM. Engineers know the
technology/product well. QA are very hands on. Marketing folks are good with
storytelling. Sales are good with customers. Each role brings in value.
23. Challenges and Possible Mitigations….continued
Challenge: Haven’t presented the product/roadmap in front of
customers/audience
Solution: Get access to the relevant decks sooner than later. Prepare your script.
Present it to a trusted friend/manager, join Toastmasters.
Challenge: Haven’t analyzed financial data before
Solution: Review old reports, speak with finance, get access to your ERP system,
speak with PM peers who have do this on a regular basis
24. Questions you shouldn’t be asking
● How do I learn the product?
● How do I sound like a PM?
● Why do I need to know other aspects of PM? I’m really good at ABC aspects
of PM.
26. Make Yourself Relevant
● Bring your expertise from your old role
● Know the product
● Don’t be afraid to get hands on
● Research your sales trends, customer base, ASP, market segmentation
● Review old PRD/MRD/pricing/positioning decks to acclimatize yourself with
templates
● Find opportunities to contribute early
27. Build your 30-60-90
● Mutually agreed 30-60-90 day plan with your manager
● Set achievable but moderately challenging goals which add value to the org
● Get written agreement from your manager
● Review it every 2 weeks to ensure on track delivery
● Get a mix of technical and business goals
● Use this time to ask questions about doing things differently. Only you have
an outsider’s perspective.
