Electronics 101 for software developersDror Helper
These days it seems as if everybody talks about the internet of things (IoT). With a cheap Arduino, Raspberry PI (or another microcontroller) every developer has the power to control the real world.
Suddenly confronted with resistors, digital inputs, analog interfaces and a weird bread board full of holes – a developer is reminded that the world of hardware can be confusing and sometimes downright frustrating.
Introduction to Electronics design , passing first by intro to electricity then some PCB desigining Hacks . this was part of OSTA LAB internship program in Fablab Egypt . it is the same curriculum needed to pass MIT Fab Academy .
Intelligent Electric Power Management Using Zigbee with Advanced Metering Inf...Akbar Badusha
This project mainly focuses on reduction of power cut and power theft. The main reason for the power cut is shortage of power in the generation unit. We can rectify this problem through our project.
Whenever the generation falls behind a particular limit (it is set initially by EB) the power management system will automatically switched on. Power will be supplied to only the basic necessary equipment (as stated in the priority list) power to other load will be stopped so that huge amount of power can be saved without power cut.
In our project, this is achieved using NS2 software and using ZIGBEE. Whenever generation falls below the particular value, then the load will be automatically switched off based on priority. And it can also be done through an interrupt. Through ZIGBEE command the interrupt will be sent to microcontroller to cut the power to the particular load.
When microcontroller receiving the command, the relay will cut the power to the equipment. So the power will be saved.
In this project,the method to detect and to control the power theft is also stated. Other methods of power theft like damaging, by passing electrical power meter can also be detected and can be punished.
Man power can also be reduced. The power usage of the customer will be automatically updated in the EB station so there is no need of man power to take meter reading in the user side. After every two months the reading will be automatically resetted.

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!
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

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).

Editor's Notes
There are many multimeters out there. They vary by shape, cost and what they can measure. Let’s start by looking at the capabilities
The ones we have here at Bitraf is sort of a mess of what have been donated, but we have 3 of these that are considered to be good quality for the price https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdGQEVdxmQQ

This is a $17.50 multimeter. It can measure quite a lot with fairly good precision.
Another thing is the quality of the probes that come with the multimeter. Most of what you’ll find is good for measuring things, but to safely measure AC voltage, you need a certain quality to isolate you from potentially deadly voltage.
The higher precision, the higher cost. For most users, these are all overkill (but they do exist)
Screenshot from https://www.batronix.com/shop/multimeter/multimeter.html
There is always a better tool, but the better they get - the harder it is to measure correctly. Connections and wires need to be perfect for a tool like this to be really useful.
Screenshot from https://www.meilhaus.de/en/3458a.htm?b2b=1
We’ll start by watching a 7 minute video made by Adafruit that explains the basics. After that we’ll do our own testing on components and circuits.
Before measuring, we need to select where to connect the probes. This is different from multimeter to multimeter, but the COM (common) is common among most of them. The black lead goes here. The read lead goes into the hole for what we are measuring. Let’s start by having it in the rightmost hole marked with V for volts and Ohm
You select what to measure by turning the dial. This switches what measuring components are connected inside the multimeter. Using the wrong setting can damage the multimeter, so check the dial before you measure.
With a manual multimeter, you’ll have to set the correct range yourself. Set it to a level higher than you expect. If you do not know what to expect - start high and go lower in steps.
Show: how to find connected points in a circuit
Show: how to measure a resistor, why you can hold the resistor when measuring, why you cannot measure resistance directly in a circuit
Show: how to measure a resistor, why you can hold the resistor when measuring, why you cannot measure resistance directly in a circuit
Explain how power will follow the path of lowest resistance.
Explain that ANY current (AC/DC) is dangerous https://www.electronicsforu.com/technology-trends/learn-electronics/ac-dc-current-body-dangerous
Show: measuring power supplies (from the box of supplies), swapping the leads,
Show: how to measure, why it’s dangerous, what NOT to do
Show: how to connect the probes into a circuit to measure Amperes
Explain: why measuring Amps are more likely to go wrong and how it can be dangerous

Show: how current only flows in one direction, how to test an LED
Illustration from: https://www.allaboutcircuits.com/textbook/semiconductors/chpt-3/meter-check-of-a-diode/
So by now, you know how to measure the basics, but what if you have special needs?
Unless you know what to measure - just get a cheap one of decent quality
Very useful when tearing down circuits to measure what they are built from.
