Ao término da Segunda Guerra, os EUA eram o país mais rico do mundo, porém eles teriam que enfrentar um rival, ou seja, o segundo país mais rico do mundo: a URSS. Tanto os EUA (capitalista) como a URSS (socialista), tinham idéias contrárias para a reconstrução do equilíbrio mundial, foi então que começou uma grande rivalidade entre esses dois países. Quem era melhor? Esse conflito de interesses que assustou o mundo ficou conhecido como Guerra Fria. Tanto os EUA criticavam o socialismo quanto a URSS criticava o capitalismo.

Build Features Not Apps
Presented at http://pragmamark.org/
Most iPhone users don’t bother installing any apps per months. And worse, ~80% never use an app they’ve installed again. The future of mobile is clearly not app, but features. Features that make the iPhone ecosystem still a native experience, but as open and flexible as the web. Learn how you could prepare for that future.
RVTIC 2017: Qu'est-ce qui vous distingue comme employeur?
Présentation de M. Pierre Bernier, Groupe Ambition, lors du Rendez-vous des TIC du 10 mars 2017
SXSW 2016: The Need To Knows
SXSW Interactive is amazing this year! I’m talking VR, AR, IoT, enter next acronym here, and even the P.O.T.U.S. made an appearance.
SXSW plays an increasingly important role in revolutionizing interactive media. While often known as a hotbed for tech startups, it’s the discussions around practical applications of such media, the opportunities they present, and the surrounding implications that have attracted the attention of a growing number of brands, platforms, and creators each year.
In this webinar we share key takeaways from SXSW 2016 and discuss what each means for the year ahead.
Mobile Is Eating the World (2016)
In this update of his past presentations on Mobile Eating the World -- delivered most recently at The Guardian's Changing Media Summit -- a16z’s Benedict Evans takes us through how technology is universal through mobile. How mobile is not a subset of the internet anymore. And how mobile (and accompanying trends of cloud and AI) is also driving new productivity tools.
In fact, mobile -- which encompasses everything from drones to cars -- is everything.
How to hang wallpaper
The document provides instructions for hanging wallpaper, including necessary tools, planning wallpaper placement, how to get started, common obstacles, and tips for a better finish. Key steps include using a plumb line to ensure straight hanging, cutting pieces of wallpaper to align the pattern before hanging, pasting and hanging one piece at a time, and trimming edges neatly around obstacles like doors and light fixtures. Tips suggest checking paste for vinyl paper, removing air bubbles while wet, and being careful with seam rollers and paste application.
How to construct a suimple garden pond
This document provides instructions for constructing a simple garden pond. It lists the necessary tools and materials, which include a spade or shovel, concrete mixer, polythene sheet, fine builders mix, cement, and flat stones. The instructions explain how to mark and dig the pond area, lay the polythene liner and stones, pour and level the concrete, and fill the pond. Additional tips are provided for pond construction in colder climates. The document also describes how to make and use a simple bucket and hose water level tool to check heights and ensure levelness during construction.
How to build a retaining wall
The document provides instructions for building a low garden retaining wall along an existing fence to transform a dull yard. It details materials needed like treated wood posts and boards. Instructions include laying out the perimeter, digging post holes, setting posts in concrete, fixing retaining boards and capping, bracing the fence posts, and installing drainage before backfilling. Building the retaining wall can create an exciting new garden space.
How to build a raised formal pool
This document provides instructions for building a raised formal pond using railway sleepers. The pond is a simple rectangle measuring approximately 8 feet by 4 feet and 1 foot deep. Materials needed include a pond liner, fabric insulation, 3 railway sleepers, fasteners, sand, and timber or slabs for the coping around the top of the pond. The instructions are presented in 5 steps: 1) prepare the base and lay the sleepers, 2) add sand and liner insulation, 3) install the pond liner and fill with water, 4) add an overflow pipe and coping, and 5) finish with plants or a fountain.
How to build a deck
This document provides instructions for building a wood deck. It discusses preliminary planning considerations like intended use, location, and local building codes. Key parts of deck construction are then outlined in steps, including laying out the deck area, installing footings and posts, adding beams and joists, and finishing with decking and railings. Tables are included to help select proper lumber sizes for beams, posts, joists, and railings based on design factors like wood type and span distances. Safety equipment and tools are also listed.
How a lighting circuit works
There are two popular types of lighting circuits. The loop circuit runs power from the consumer unit to the first ceiling rose, then through the switch and back to the ceiling rose before moving on to the next. The junction box circuit runs power from the consumer unit to the first junction box, with the switch interrupting the live wire between boxes. Usually 1mm squared cable is used for lighting circuits, which can support up to 12 100W bulbs over 95 meters. Circuits are split between floors to avoid total darkness if a fuse blows. Homeowners must follow regulations carefully and have any new circuit work checked by an electrician when selling.
Home security
1. Basic home security involves securing doors and windows by checking they are locked before bed or leaving the house. An intruder alarm or smoke detector provides additional protection.
2. Most burglaries are opportunistic, so taking security measures like installing quality locks, using timers for lights/appliances when away, and not openly sharing travel plans can help deter intruders. Contact your local police for specific security advice.
3. Windows of various types can be better secured by installing locks, bolts or bars that require a key to open. Instructions are included with security devices or ask for advice on the best options.
Heat guns
Electric heat guns have largely replaced paraffin and bottled gas blowlamps for stripping paint due to being less dangerous and more convenient. Heat guns work by blowing hot air across a heating element through a nozzle. They have temperature and airflow settings and are useful for tasks like paint stripping, drying, and heat shrinking. Safety precautions must be taken when using heat guns due to the high temperatures involved.
Hanging wallpaper
The document provides instructions for hanging wallpaper, including calculating the amount of wallpaper needed, preparing the walls, determining the hanging order, marking and cutting lengths, pasting and hanging the lengths, trimming, and hanging into corners and recesses. Key steps include measuring the room, calculating rolls needed, filling any holes or cracks, starting in a corner and working away, cutting lengths to fit adding extra for trimming, pasting one length at a time and smoothing onto the walls, and trimming edges.
Hanging a door
The document provides instructions for hanging an internal door. Some key points:
1) Doors often need to be trimmed to fit the opening as houses can shift over time. It is best to start with a square frame and cut the door to fit rather than adapting the frame.
2) Common internal door sizes are listed in both metric and imperial measurements. Doors can also be purchased as "door blanks" and customized.
3) When hanging the door, mark where it will be cut by holding it in the frame. Always leave the cutting line so the door is not cut too small. Hinges are typically 7 inches from the top and bottom.
4) Chisel out recesses
Handrail anatomy
This document outlines the anatomy and specifications for a handrail, including:
(1) The boundary joist must be treated timber and attached to joists with bolts and plates for strength and stability.
(2) Balusters connect the boundary joist to other rails with bolts positioned 25mm from the top and bottom, and their size depends on the rail and baluster spacing.
(3) A top rail is fixed to balusters with nails, with more nails used for larger baluster spans, and must be at least 1000mm high.

(3) A top rail is fixed to balusters with nails, with more nails used for larger baluster spans, and must be at least 1000mm high.
Upvc fascia
UPVC fascias, soffits, and bargeboards provide a low-maintenance alternative to wood. Any services in the existing fascia will need to be relocated by specialists before installation. Proper scaffolding is recommended for safety when working at height. Ventilated soffit boards improve roof ventilation and should be considered when replacing soffit. Thorough preparation of existing wood elements and roofing felt is important for a long-lasting installation.
Timber care
This document provides advice on properly caring for and protecting timber structures like decks, cladding, sheds and furniture. It discusses the importance of using the right products suited for each application, as many products on the market are ineffective or inappropriate. It specifically recommends the Owatrol line of wood care products. It outlines steps for treating new wood, including using Seasonite to allow the wood to weather gradually while preventing damage. It also discusses options for maintaining or changing the appearance of wood over time.
How to avoid the cowboy builder
This document provides guidelines for avoiding hiring an unqualified or dishonest builder, known as a "cowboy builder". It recommends producing a work specification, getting recommendations and multiple quotes, checking references, agreeing on payments and guarantees, and drafting a written contract. Being thorough in selecting a builder and maintaining communication during the project can help ensure the work is done correctly and minimize risks.
General do it yourself safety comments
The document provides safety tips for do-it-yourself projects. It lists numerous "do's" such as always wearing appropriate protective gear, reading instructions, securing workpieces, and using caution with power tools. Several "don'ts" are also outlined, like never operating power tools under the influence, using damaged tools, or cutting loose materials that could fly off. Safety should always be the top priority for any home project.
Garage floor insulation
Ron installed a new insulated floor system in his workshop to make it less cold. He used Dricore subflooring panels, which are composed of compressed wood flakes and have a moisture barrier. The panels interlock without glue using tongue-and-groove joints. This creates a floating floor that can expand and contract without being attached to the concrete. Ron cut and installed the panels, filling gaps with shims as needed. He then installed G-floor garage flooring over the top, which rolls out without adhesive. The new insulated floor system helped warm up Ron's workshop.
Foundations for light garden walls
The document provides guidelines for building light garden wall foundations, including those on sloping ground. Foundations should be at least 3 times the width of a half brick wall or twice the width of a full brick wall. When digging trenches for foundations on a slope, the trenches should be cut horizontally in steps to accommodate the slope. Retaining walls should be no more than 4 times as tall as they are thick to provide stability.
Fixing to plasterboard and plasterboard fixings
1) To properly fix items to plasterboard walls, you need to use specialized fixings rather than ordinary wall plugs, as plasterboard is too soft for wall plugs to grip securely.
2) The strongest fixing is the Redidrive, which involves drilling a small pilot hole and screwing a plastic anchor into the hole to provide an anchoring point for screws.
3) Other effective fixings include plastic toggles, hollow wall anchors, spring toggles, and hammer-in anchors, which all work by expanding behind the plasterboard for a secure grip. Heavier items are best fixed with Redidrives or attached to wall studs.
Fixing to lathe & plaster
Lathe and plaster walls are difficult to securely fix items to due to their flexible nature over time. Cutting out a section of the lathe and plaster between studs and securing a timber batten provides a solid surface for fixing. The batten should be sealed with PVA and staples before filling gaps around the edges. With the right materials, the batten can be disguised or made into a decorative feature.
Fitting a mortice latch
1. A mortice latch is a common type of door furniture used for internal and external doors. It consists of a catch with a handle on each side.
2. To install a mortice latch, mark lines on the door edge and extending into the center to indicate where to drill holes for the latch barrel and handles. Chisel out recesses for the latch plate and drill pilot holes.
3. Insert the barrel and mark then drill holes for the screws. Install the handles and keep plate on the opposite side of the door frame to catch the latch.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data Warehouse
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
