The PowerPoint presentation summarizes the devastating 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami that killed over 125,000 people. It describes how a massive 9.0 magnitude earthquake in the Indian Ocean generated tsunami waves that spread across the region, striking coastlines in Indonesia, Thailand, Sri Lanka, India, and Africa. The summary details the immense destruction as entire villages were flattened by walls of water over 10 meters high, leaving millions homeless and infrastructure destroyed. Survivor accounts describe the horror of seeing the encroaching waves and rushing to higher ground. The aftermath section outlines the immense humanitarian crisis, challenges in coordinating relief efforts, and health risks from lack of clean water and medical supplies.

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.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Indonesian earthquake and tsunami val
1. The PowerPoint presentation which you are about to watch is
sad and, in places, you may find it shocking. It was made on the
30th December 2004 by a Geography teacher who, like you, has
watched with horror as the events unfolded daily on our screens.
“This
is a human tragedy on a huge
scale – for once caused by the action
of Nature rather than Man”
William Rees Mogg 27.12.04
2. Indian Ocean Tsunami
26th December 2004
At GMT 00.59 a magnitude 9 undersea
earthquake shook the sea bed off the north west
coast of Sumatra. Within hours multiple tsunamis
had swept across the Indian Ocean ravaging
coastal regions and killing over 120,000 people.
3. The USGS (United States Geological Survey) record of the earthquake
5. Two tectonic plates,
the Australian and
Eurasian plates, meet
just off Sumatra's
south-west coast,
grinding together and
sending periodic
seismic tremors
through the region.
At 0059 GMT a violent
rupture occurred on the
sea floor along a fault
about 1,000km long.
6. Area affected
The 9.0 magnitude quake,
which was the strongest in
the world for at least 40
years, wreaked havoc across
the whole region.
Walls of water, tens of
metres high, slammed into
coastal resorts thousands of
miles apart.
Surging seas and floods were
reported as far away as east
Africa.
7. Deadly wave
All along the rupture
the seafloor was
shunted vertically by
about 10 metres.
This movement
displaced the overlying
water, generating a
massive tsunami, or
tidal wave.
The wave then fanned
out across the Indian
Ocean at enormous
speed.
9. Within half an hour the waves had reached Sumatra and Malaysia
and swept ashore in Thailand.
Two hours later they reached Sri Lanka and India.
Within four hours they had crossed the ocean to the east coast of Africa
10. The power of tsunamis only becomes clear as they
approach shallow water along the coast
11. But from the beaches few people recognised the danger
of the white line on the horizon
12. Hildasan, 50, net-maker
I was repairing some
fishing nets in the
harbour when I saw the
waters rising. I'd never
seen anything like it. I
began to run for my life -
I knew something was
very wrong. The
rumbling noise, the
rising water, just didn't
make sense. As I ran
inland the sea seemed to
be roaring in the
background.
14. Sundar Raj, 21,
fisherman
I was sleeping in our
boat when the sea
began making a
rumbling sound. I saw
the water level rising. I
jumped into the water
and tied my boat to
the wharf as the waves
began lashing me from
behind. I climbed on to
the jetty and ran.
16. The Aftermath
Early reports gave no
hint of the scale of the
disaster…….
“Scale of devastation
Thousands are reported
to have been killed, but
there has been little
news from the worst-hit
areas where all
transport and
communication links
were destroyed. “
bbc.co.uk 27.12.04
17. Low lying coastal
areas were left
obliterated and
flooded as here in
Aceh province in
Sumatra, Indonesia
Current reports
indicate that the north
and west coasts of
Sumatra have
experienced the worst
destruction
19. Fishing boats, which provide essential food supplies for local
people here in India, have been washed ashore
20. Scenes which were
repeated across the
Indian Ocean
Sri Lanka
Phuket,
Thailand
21. Low lying areas have
been left flooded with
seawater which quickly
becomes contaminated
with sewage and
decomposing bodies
Male in the
Maldives
Banda Aceh in
Sumatra, Indonesia
22. Millions of people have
been left homeless
Cuddalore, south of
Madras, India
Penang, Malaysia
23. V Govindan, 55, fish
seller
My house was blown
nearly half a kilometre
inland when the waves
came. I started
running with my wife
and four children. I
returned to the coast
in the evening and
saw that my home had
been washed away.
The signboard is still
there - The board
says: "Live prawns
bought here". Now life
is so uncertain.
24. Valli, 20, fish seller
My family has lived for
generations by the sea.
Everything almost
ended on Sunday as
the waves lashed our
house. We managed to
drag most of our
belongings from our
huts. Then we ran and
ran until we reached
the fisheries office,
which is now my home.
25. A family survey what is left of their home south of Colombo, Sri Lanka
26. “Paradise Lost”
Idyllic beach resorts
like Galle in Sri
Lanka, photographed
here in March 2004,
have been turned
into scenes of horror,
devastation and
death,
27. Now Hell on Earth
Phi Phi Island, Thailand
Beach debris at
Phuket, Thailand
28. All that remains of luxury
holiday accommodation on Phi
Phi Island, Thailand
30. Communications have
been completely
disrupted
Bus station in Galle, Sri
Lanka
800 people died in a train
derailed by the waves in Sri
Lanka – it is the worst train
disaster ever recorded.
31. The human toll is huge – on 30.12.04 it stands at 125,000
40. In all affected areas
survivors are hungry as
food supplies run out
41. The threat of disease
increases
Medicines are needed
desperately
42. The evacuation of
foreign tourists from
the beach resorts
begins
Many are severely
traumatised
43. A British holiday maker arrives home from
the Maldives three days after the tsunami
44. Other survivors, such as these women
and children from the Nicobar Islands,
leave to a more uncertain future
45. Relief efforts, which have been slow to start, gather pace
as the enormity of the disaster begins to be appreciated
German relief workers prepare
to depart for Sri Lanka
French relief workers from
the Medecins Sans
Frontieres organisation
51. Co-ordination of relief efforts from throughout
the world is proving to be a major challenge
Four days after the tsunami many of the worst
affected areas cannot be reached
52. at 30.12.04
The death toll stands at 125,000
By the time you watch this, it will be
much higher.
53. “We view with awe a release of power on this
scale. We know that this power is greater than
that of our species – Nature holds us in its
hands. We may be able to lessen some of its
consequences, sometimes we can give advance
warning of the threat but we are not in control.”
54. The tsunami has demonstrated
that Nature, and not Mankind, is
the real master.”
William Rees-Mogg 27.12.04
